Demand‚ Supply‚ Market Equilibrium and Elasticity A. Elasticity of demand is shown when the demands for a service or goods vary according to the price. Cross-price elasticity is shown by a change in the demand for an item relative to the change in the price of another. For substitutes‚ when there is a price increase of an item‚ there is an increase in the demand for another item. When viewing complements‚ if there is an increase in the price of an item‚ the demand

Supply‚ Demand‚ and Price Elasticity Paper 2010 Learning Team A University of Phoenix 10/17/2010 Petroleum is a necessity for the majority of humans across the world. Petroleum is a natural resource that has few competitors. In recent decades alternative energy sources have been investigated‚ but the use of petroleum is still ahead of the game as the world’s primary energy source in the use of automobiles‚ but petroleum is also the main ingredient in plastic. We use plastic everywhere‚ the

to an increase of 10% in income. Then the income elasticity of demand would be‚ Ey= (20%)/(10%)=2 The amount which the quantity demanded for a good change in response to a change in income depends on the type of goods. We can distinguish the types of goods as following‚ Normal goods - Ey > 0 – positive YED Luxury goods - Ey > 1 Necessities - 0 < Ey < 1 Inferior products - Ey < 0 – negative YED Let’s see how the income elasticity of demand deviates for normal goods and inferior products‚ Normal

Explain what is meant by the terms price elasticity‚ income elasticity and cross elasticity of demand and discuss the main determinants of each of these. 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. If a relatively small change in

OF ECONOMICS TUTORIAL 4 Reading: Chapter 4 of the textbook. SECTION A 1. The price elasticity of demand is the percentage change in price divided by the percentage change in quantity demanded. F 2. Demand is said to be inelastic when a reduction in price results in a decrease in total revenue. T / F 3. When the price of coffee increases 8%‚ quantity demanded decreases 5%. The elasticity of coffee must be inelastic. (PERCENTAGE OF PRICE IS GREATER THAN THE PERCENTAGE OF QUANTITY BY

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

1. Why are the concepts of own and cross-price elasticities of demand essential to competitor identification and market definition? (2 points possible) The own-price elasticity of demand determines whether a product faces close substitutes‚ but it does not identify what substitutes are available. Economists can identify substitutes by measuring the cross-price elasticity of demand between two products. The higher is the cross-price elasticity‚ the more readily consumers substitute between two
