	Aggregation of individual demand to total, or market, demand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Each person's individual total utility gleaned from purchases depends on the size of his or her budget, but the distribution of wealth (and thus her budget) is a separate (free) variable in the aggregation.
		Each person's demand curve is a function of his or her budget, so that if the distribution of wealth changes (by changing the distribution of prices and thus salaries, and so on), all of the individual demand curves change.
		Markets cannot be claimed to select an optimum in the sense of the greatest total utility of society; indeed, there is not even general agreement on how total utility should be defined.

	liberty medical supply - liberty medical supply
		The theory of supply and demand is important for some economic schools' understanding of a market economy in that it is an explanation of the mechanism by which many resource allocation decisions are made.
		Now assume that individual firms have the ability to alter the quantities supplied and the price they are willing to accept, and consumers have the ability to alter the quantities that they demand and the amount they are willing to pay.
		Even with downward-sloping demand curves, it is possible that an increase in income may lead to a decrease in demand for a particular good, probably due to the existence of more attractive alternatives which become affordable: a good with this property is known as an inferior good.

		Taken together, these elements of the model of individual demand provide a unifying framework for measuring the value of cable television services. First, the framework builds individual demand for whatever services are offered from tastes for the underlying objects of consumer utility, the programming provided on those services.
		The model of individual demand for cable services is then specified and the aggregation assumptions required to permit its estimation on a cross-section of market-level data are described.
		In essence, the knowledge of household preferences required to quantify the value of changes in quality and diversity at the individual level are extended to quantify the value of aggregate quality and diversity. The legitimacy of this practice, of course, rests with the robustness of the underlying assumptions.

		While demand is still concentrated in a few hot areas of content development, it is laying the foundation for more rapid and tangible growth.
		At present, the total market for micro-payments remains small in comparison to the multi-trillion-dollar consumer payments market.
		Fee models for processing micro-payments include: direct-to-bill (mainly seen in mobile telecom); merchant aggregation (where small charges are grouped and submitted as a single transaction); prepaid accounts (pre-funded by a customer); and direct transfer (where a user’s bank or other account is directly accessed to pull necessary funds).

		Although market preference is for fresh product, frozen fish is readily sold when demand for fresh fish exceeds supply, and salted fish is in steady demand due to taste preference.
