The law of demand is one of the most fundamental concepts in economics. It works with the law of supply to explain how market economies allocate resources and determine the prices of goods and services that we observe in everyday transactions. The law of demand states that quantity purchased varies inversely with price. In other words, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded. This occurs because of diminishing marginal utility. That is, consumers use the first units of an economic good they purchase to serve their most urgent needs first, and use each additional unit of the good to serve successively lower valued ends.

Quantity Demanded refers to how much of an economic good or service is demanded by a consumer or a group of consumers at a given period at a certain price. There are two important points related to quantity demanded which are,
- It is always expressed at a given price, in essence, different quantities are demanded at different prices.
- It is a flow which means quantity demanded doesn’t indicate a single purchase rather a continuous flow of purchases.
The given below figure represents the movement along demand curve due to changes in price, i.e. the upward movement of demand curve indicates the contraction of demand whereas a downward shift denotes the expansion of demand.
