During the period 2006 through 2010, housing production in the United States fell from a rate of over 2.27 million housing starts per year to a rate of under 500,000, a decrease of over 80 percent. At the same time, the number of new households slowed to a trickle. Students without a job moved in with their parents, fewer immigrants came to the United States, and more of those already here went home. If there are fewer households, it is a decline in demand. If fewer new units are built, it is a decline in supply. Assume that the quantity supplied and quantity demanded are equal at 50,000 units and at a price of $200,000. 300,000 250,000 200,000 150,000 100,000 1.) Using the line drawing tool, draw and label a standard supply and demand diagram which shows the demand for new housing units that are purchased in the market each month, and the supply of new units built and put on the market each month. 2.) Using the line drawing tool, draw and label a line to show a decline in demand on the same diagram

We will assume that the following part of the statement is not correct and that you may have copied elements from a chart that was not included, so we will leave it as follows.

Well, for this problem what we have to do is an analysis of the relationship between supply and demand.

1) In this case, what we have to do is to graph the supply and demand functions, so that the equilibrium point can be seen. With this, and the information we have, graph 1 shows us how this graph would look like. On the x-axis we have the number of houses sold and on the y-axis the price.

2) At the second point, we have to graph the situation if the demand decreases. As you can see in the second graph, if demand decreases, then the price and the number of units sold will also decrease.
