Summary
Market equilibration is the process where supply and demand balance out. Students learn how this process works through a real-world example.
Market Equilibration Explained
Market equilibration happens when competition sets a price. Both supply and demand affect this price. The oil industry is used to show how this works.

Efficient market theory says prices should be the same everywhere. But refiners use different methods. This affects the price of fuel.
