Text Structure

People spend money on both goods and services. A good is an actual item that you can buy like a toy. A service, however is not an actual thing. When you pay for a service you are paying someone to do something. For example, mowing the lawn or dog walking are services. Sometimes a business can provide both goods and services. For example, a car shop might sell tires and also put them on your car. Businesses can sell both goods and services and consumers can buy both too. What's the text structure?

Stores change what they sell and how much things cost based on what the consumer wants. This called supply and demand. The supply is the product that can be purchased and the demand is how many people want the product. Since it is cold in the winder, the demand for swimsuits is low. This means that swimsuits will be cheaper in the winter. In the summer, a lot of people need swimsuits. This high demand causes swimsuits to cost full price. On a really hot day, ice cream will cost full price because lots of people want a cool treat. An ice cream store might have a sale on a cold day because the demand for ice cream will be lower.
