 The equilibrium price is determined by the point where the demand curve and the supply curve intersect. At this point, quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal. At a price greater than the equilibrium price there is an excess quantity supplied, or surplus since an increase in price leads to a reduction in the quantity demanded but an increase in quantity supplied. At a price below the equilibrium price there is an excess quantity demanded or shortage.
