Q 1. Discuss the practical application of Price elasticity and Income elasticity of demand. Ans: There are many practical applications of price elasticity and Income elasticity of demand which are discussed as below. (A) Practical application of price elasticity of demand : 1. Production planning: It helps a producer to decide about the volume of production. When the demand is elastic‚ a producer has to produce different quantity of product and fixed quantity when the demand is inelastic

State the factors affecting the price elasticity of demand? The type of product will affect the price elasticity of demand i.e. a necessity such as petrol will have a inelastic demand as it is a must have for consumers so a change in price will cause only a minor change in price whereas if a product is not a necessity for consumers it will have an elastic demand meaning a small change in price could lead to a greater change in quantity demanded The proportion of the consumers income spent on a product

What is the formula for measuring price elasticity of demand? Percentage change in quantity demanded / Percentage change in price When the price elasticity coefficient is less than 1‚ the percentage change in quantity demanded is smaller than the change in price. When the price elasticity coefficient is equal to 1‚ the percentage change in quantity demanded is equal to the change in price. When the price elasticity coefficient is greater than 1‚ the percentage change in quantity demanded

Elastic is the result of the price changing and the consumer still demanding the produce. As for inelastic‚ this is the result of the price changing although the demand decreases. The difference between elastic and inelastic are determined by the demand of the product; as for elastic the consumer will always have a demand for the product such as water‚ food‚ and gas‚ and for inelastic the consumer will change the demand based on price of the product. Producers are interested in elasticity‚ because

Gas Price Elasticity The Energy Information Administration of the Department of Energy began tracking weekly gasoline prices in 1990 by means of a survey of 800 service stations around the country. The average retail price for unleaded gasoline posted its fourth record high during the week of June 12‚ 2000‚ increasing 5 cents a gallon to an average of $1.681. The price at the pump is higher than the same period last year by 56 cents and has risen 16.2 cents over the past month (Anonymous‚ 2000)

However‚ it remains unclear whether the price elasticity of the demand for computers is constant over time. Findings on the pattern of price elasticity will have important implications in the study of information
