To understand market equilibrium it is important to understand supply and demand and how this will determine the price charged for a product or service. The law of demand states that all other things being equal or held constant, as the price of a product or service increases the demand will decrease. Economists break down the factors affecting demand into five categories; price of product, income, price of complimentary and substitute goods, tastes, taxes, and expectations both of price and quality (Krugman & Wells, 2013). The law of supply states that all other things being equal, as the price of a product or service increases the supply of that product or service will also increase. The four factors that affect supply are price, input price, technology, and expectations of price and quality (Krugman & Wells, 2013).
To help support his claim, Bittman uses many different rhetorical devices in his article. He begins his article by giving the reader a few statistics about the cost of fast food nowadays at major restaurants such as MacDonald’s. “Two Big Macs, a cheeseburger, six chicken McNuggets, two medium and two small fries, and two medium and two small sodas — costs, at the McDonald’s a hundred steps from where I write, about $28. You can serve a roasted chicken with vegetables along with a simple salad and milk for about $14, and feed four or even six people,” (Bittman 1). He continues by saying that people also may say that fast food is cheaper when measured by the calorie but when half of the people in this country consume too many calories rather than too few, measuring food’s cost by the calorie makes no sense.
As we all know, the most popular fast-food restaurant in the world also has the reputation for being the unhealthiest place around. McDonald's is a favorite of many households in America and it seems that today people can't get enough of it. In the documentary called Supersize Me, Morgan Spurlock attempts to prove that the effects of eating Big Macs, supersized fries, and half-gallons of coke can be extremely dangerous to one's health. Spurlock goes through a thirty day adventure of eating only McDonald's food. He effectively shows to doctors, himself, and his audience that, fast-food eating Americans are in danger of destroying their health.
Do Corn Subsidies Lead To Obesity? Commodity corn has become a staple crop here in the United States food and agricultural system. “When food is abundant and cheap, people will eat more of it and get fat”(Omnivore’s Dilemma, Pollan). When Michael Pollan says this he is generally referring to fast food eateries such as McDonalds which use government subsidised corn to make most of their products, including the sweeteners in soda. There are over 14,000 McDonald’s locations in America alone and they made over 8.5 Billion dollars in 2013 alone.
Maybe it’s the oversized portions which have doubled within the last two decades or the notorious Big Mac sold at an affordable, friendly user price of $0.99. Hey, maybe it’s even the fact that most of us have no idea how our food is made or where it comes from and that most of us don’t really care to know. Although there is nothing we can do about McDonalds and their oversized portion, the creators of the infamous documentary, Food, Inc., sheds
The independent variables used to analyze coefficient of determination here were the average income of food service manager and the average price of pizza in a time series regression analysis. Based on the data collect per the spreadsheet attached, the percent change of the sales is explained by R square percent of 95% change in price of pizza and income.

Per the data food service manager salaries are down by 8.9% from last year this time therefore to open a new pizza operation would be a good capitalize managerial decision at this time other cost factors remain the same.
