Classification of Price Elasticity of Demand 1. Price Elastic Demand (% ΔQd > % ΔP) ϵ > 1 If the value of price elasticity coefficient is greater than one in absolute value. This means that a small change in price results to a greater change in quantity demanded. Goods which are elastic tend to have some or all of the following characteristics: They are luxury goods They are expensive and a big % of income e.g. sports cars and holidays Goods with many substitutes and a very competitive market.

Compute the arc price elasticity of demand over this price and consumption quantity range. Ey = ((1800 – 1500) / ((1800 + 1500) / 2)) ((1.75 – 2.25) / ((1.75 + 2.25) / 2)) Ey = 300 ($4.00) -$0.50 (300) Ey = -8% 4.
