Question

What is the implication of a vertical supply curve?

Short Answer
Advertisements

Solution

The quantity supplied is fixed when the supply curve is vertical. The price has no bearing on it. This suggests a supply that is totally inelastic. It is typical for short-run production limits, unique art, and land. Only the price, not the amount, varies as demand shifts.
