Discuss the importance of each of these to the decision making process within a typical business. Elasticity is the responsiveness to which one variable responds to a change in another variable Price elasticity of demand (PED) measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of a product to a change in its price.

1. Compute the price elasticity of demand between these two points. Let quantity demanded = Q‚ Q1= 400 meals/day‚ and Q2= 450 meals/day Let price = P‚ P1= $20‚ and P2= $18 The change in quantity demanded = Q2-Q1 = 450-400= 50 The change in price = P2-P1= $18-$20= -2 The average in demand = (Q2+Q1)/2= (450+400)/2= 850/2=425 The average in price = (P2+P1)/2 = (18+20)/2 =38/2= 19 The percentage change in quantity demand = change in quantity demanded/the average in quantity demand =50/425 = 0.1174 =

PRICE ELASCITIY OF DEMAND: There are several uses of Price Elasticity of Demand that is why firms gather information about the Price Elasticity of Demand of its products. A firm will know much more about its internal operations and product costs than it will about its external environment. Therefore‚ gathering data on how consumers respond to changes in price can help reduce risk and uncertainly. More specifically‚ knowledge of Price Elasticity of Demand can help the firm forecast its sales and

Price elasticity of demand and practical application. Price elasticity of demand Price elasticity of demand is a measure to show the responsiveness‚ or elasticity‚ of the quantity demanded of a good or service to a change in its price. More precisely‚ it gives the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to a one percent change in price ( i.e. holding constant all the other determinants of demand‚ such as income). Practical application of price elasticity : Practical application
