One example is the express buses. As the demand for express bus tickets is price elastic‚ the relative increase in the price of the tickets would result in a more than proportionate decrease in the quantity demanded for them. Such a prediction is highly possible as express buses and airplanes are close substitutes. Figure 2(a) and Figure 2(b) show that the demand for express bus tickets is more price elastic as compared to that of air tickets. This is because services provided by express

the demand for silver from the printing sector. As more silver was demanded‚ the price of it could be increased as in this case silver was a “need for the printing sector in order to produce colored paper. So this meant silver was now more price inelastic as prices could go up‚ meanwhile the demand for the good would not all equally to the rise in price. Moreover‚ as the demand for smartphones increases‚ so does the demand for silver‚ we call this derived demand. Smartphones use silver to produce

1a) Explain how the different features of monopolistic competition and oligopoly affect price and output determination in these market structures. Both monopolistic competition (MPC) and oligopoly generally determine price and output based on the profit-maximising condition that marginal cost (MC) equals to marginal revenue (MR). Due to the different features of both monopolistic competition and oligopoly such as the barriers to entry (BTE)‚ which affects the number of sellers as well as market

A determination will be made as to the price elasticity of demand of the product and whether the product is elastic or inelastic. A determination will also be made as to how an increase in a consumer’s income would affect the demand for Starbucks products.
