थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर

I disagree with the given statement.

Reason:

  1. In ordinary language, demand means a desire.
  2. Desire means an urge to have something.
  3. In Economics, demand means a desire which is backed by willingness and ability to pay.
  4. E.g.: if a person has the desire to go on a vacation to Mauritius, but does not have the money to go there, then it will simply be a desire and not a demand in economic sense.
  5. Thus, demand is an effective desire.

  6. Demand = Desire + Ability to pay + Willingness to spend

Therefore, all desires are not demand.
