Short description: A graph represents the Quantity versus Price relationship. Long description: In the graph, the horizontal axis denotes Quantity and is marked with three values, in the increasing order: Q subscript 1 through 3. The vertical axis denotes Price and is marked with four values in the increasing order: P subscript 1 through 4. Two increasing lines are drawn: M C subscript S and M C subscript p. A decreasing line is drawn M B. The point of intersection of these lines is marked and shown. The point of intersection of the line M C subscript S and M B is (Q subscript 2, P subscript 3). The point of intersection of the line M C subscript p and M B is (Q subscript 3, P subscript 2). Other points marked on the lines, which are the projections of intersection point on either line are as follows. On the line M C subscript s: (Q subscript 1, P subscript 1) and (Q subscript 3, P subscript 4). On the line M C subscript p: (Q subscript 2, P subscript 1).
