| 1 | If the selling price is greater than the cost price , then a profit is made . |
| 2 | When therefore the amount produced ( in a unit of time ) is such that the demand price is greater than the supply price , then sellers receive more than is sufficient to make it worth their while to bring goods to market to that amount ; and there is at work an active force tending to increase the amount brought forward for sale . |
| 3 | Such an equilibrium is stable ; that is , the price , if displaced a little from it , will tend to return , as a pendulum oscillates about its lowest point ; and it will be found to be a characteristic of stable equilibria that in them the demand price is greater than the supply price for amounts just less than the equilibrium amount , and vice versa . |
| 4 | For when the demand price is greater than the supply price , the amount produced tends to increase . |
| 5 | Therefore , if the demand price is greater than the supply price for amounts just less than an equilibrium amount ; then , if the scale of production is temporarily diminished somewhat below that equilibrium amount , it will tend to return ; thus the equilibrium is stable for displacements in that direction . |
| 6 | If the demand price is greater than the supply price for amounts just less than the equilibrium amount , it is sure to be less than the supply price for amounts just greater : and therefore , if the scale of production is somewhat increased beyond the equilibrium position , it will tend to return ; and the equilibrium will be stable for displacements in that direction also . |
