    Aussie Avocado Economics

    One of the most basic economic laws, the law of supply and demand ties into almost all economic principles in one way or another. In practice, supply and demand pull against each other until the market finds an equilibrium price.

In this paper I will analyze Irvin’s article from the viewpoints of Supply and Demand theories of…
