the price of an inelastic goods • C. increases revenues Correct : Inelastic goods are necessities that consumers continue to purchase even when the price increases. This increases the revenue‚ as more is paid for each good. The percentage change in price increases faster than the change in quantity‚ which may remain constant. When more is paid for a good or a service‚ revenue increases. Materials • Price Elasticity and the Total-Revenue Curve • Inelastic Demand 3 . Price

Necessity and Luxury goods Necessity YED 1 If a good has a YED that is greater than one‚ is has income elastic demand: a percentage increase in income produces a larger percentage increase in quantity demanded. Luxuries are income elastic goods. Like the I Phone or chewing gum. Applications of Income and elasticity of demand YED implication for producers and for the economy Overt time the economy grows and the society’s

(i.e. when price gets high‚ quantity demanded decreases and vice versa). This is also a reason why │PED│ is written as an absolute value. When the value of PED is more than 1‚ it is a relatively more elastic demand‚ when equals to 1‚ it is unit elastic and when less than 1‚ the demand becomes inelastic. The slope of a demand curve cannot indicate the PED because the slope and elasticity are two different concepts. Slope measures the steepness and flatness of the curve and give units of price and

at. First of all‚ the price elasticity of demand is a measure of responsiveness of the quantity of a good or service demanded to change in its price. Petrol is an inelastic product. This is because petrol is a needed in a daily basis. An increase in price of petrol will cause a small change (decrease) in petrol. Therefore it is inelastic as its quantity demanded has a small responsive to the price. Figure 1.1 illustrates

Suppose the demand and supply curve for good X are as follows: PD = 533 – 5Q PS = 122 + 3Q where P is the price of X and Q is the quantity. Suppose an excise tax of $8 per unit of X is assessed on this market. What is the new equilibrium quantity of X? Answer Feedback The correct answer is: 50.375 Use
