(i) contraction of demand, and (ii) extension of supply.

The process of contraction of demand and extension of supply would continue till new equilibrium is struck where demand = supply Likewise, in a situation of excess supply (S > D) price will tend to fall causing

(i) Extension of Demand, and

(ii) Contraction of Supply. The process of extension of demand, and contraction of supply would continue till new equilibrium is where demand
