5. Read and translate the text in writing. Theory of Demand.
THEORY OF DEMAND - is the branch of economic theory concerned with analysing the determinants of a consumer's choice of a particular set of purchases from all those that are open to him. The theory is essentially concerned with analysing how the consumer's tastes, INCOME and PRICES of the goods determine the patern of purchases- From this analysis It is possible to predict bow he will respond to such changes as increased income, reduced price of a good, changed tastes, etc. In addition, it is possible to deduce the shape of the DEMAND CURVE, and clarity what determines its ELASTICITY. The theory of demand is often criticized for its apparent aridity and "unrealism". Demand theory seems to be concerned with showing that when price goes down consumers of a good will want to buy more of it. The theory says only that quantity demanded will rise, fall or stay the same following a price change.

Wholesaling
Wholesaling is a part of the marketing system. It provides channels of distribution which help to bring goods to the market. Generally indirect channels are used to market manufactured consumer goods. It could be from the manufacturer to the wholesaler, from the retailer to the consumer or through more complicated channels. A direct channel moves goods from the manufacturer or producer to the consumer.
Wholesaling is often a field of small business, but there is a growing chain movement in the western countries. About a quarter of wholesaling units account for one-third of total sales.
Two-third of the wholesaling middleman are merchant wholesalers who take title to the goods they deal in. There are also agent middlemen who negotiate purchases or sales or both. They don't take title to the goods they deal in. Sometimes they take possession though. These agents don't earn salaries. They receive commissions. This is a percentage of the value of the goods they sell.
Wholesalers simplify the process of distribution. For example, the average supermarket stocks 5.000 items in groceries alone, a retail druggist can have more than 6.000 items. As a wholesaler handles a large assortment of items from numerous manufacturers he reduces the problem of both manufacturer and retailer. The store-keeper does not have to deal directly with thousands of different people. He usually has a well-stocked store and deals with only a few wholesalers.
