One definition of elasticity is what happens to consumer demand for a good when prices increase. As the price of a good rises‚ consumers will usually demand a lower quantity of that good‚ perhaps by consuming less‚ substituting other goods‚ and so on and the demand of complementary product will also be less. The greater the extent to which demand falls as price rises‚ the greater the price elasticity of demand. Conversely‚ as the price of a good falls‚ consumers will usually demand a greater quantity

The actual concept is a little confusing to me‚ what I get from the concept is that we use elasticity when we want to see how one thing changes when we change something else. How does demand for a good change when we change its price? How does the demand for a good change when the price of a substitute

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
