1. (a) The price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded to a change in price. (b) Give the formula for price elasticity of demand. See formula in question 4 below. 2. (a) As -0.2 = %∆Q / %∆P‚ therefore ∆Q = -0.2 *10% = - 2.0 %; (b) As -1.6 = %∆Q / %∆P‚ therefore ∆Q = -1.6 *10% = - 16.0 %; 3.

Monsanto? One of the factors for Roundup’s success is because of the increasing popularity of conservation tillage. But as the conservation tillage is sensitive to the price of herbicides‚ the price of herbicides is very elastic. Therefore‚ the demand for herbicide will respond substantially to changes in the price. For Roundup‚ when its price was reduced by 9%‚ the sales volume was increased by 22%. 22% is much higher than 9%. As a result‚ the price of Roundup is very elastic and the cutting price
