Original Demand Curve in the Hat Market (Figure 8.14)
The initial demand for hats in the market diagram (Figure 8.14) is represented by a downward-sloping line labeled 'Original demand'. This curve connects the point (0, 20) on the price axis with the point (40, 0) on the quantity axis, showing that the quantity demanded falls to zero at a price of $20 and that 40,000 hats would be demanded if they were free.
