by the product. If we change‚ we can save human resource fee‚ raw materials fee‚ and electric cost. But we have to invest fix cost. So we need to think whether this investment is worth investing or not. With this value for WTP‚ one can estimate elasticity of demand. If there is no switching cost between lens and medicine‚ under any price above WTP‚ farmers will choose only medicine. On the other hand‚‚ farmers will chose only lens at any price below WTP. Therefore‚ demand curve is perfectly horizontal

with examples‚ explain the concepts of price elasticity of demand‚ income elasticity of demand and cross elasticity of demand. Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of demand to a change in income‚ ceteris paribus. It is the percentage change in demand for a good resulting from a percentage change in income‚ ceteris paribus. When income changes with other price or non-price factors‚ such as income‚ remaining unchanged‚ income elasticity of demand measures how much to which demand

Price elasticity of demand measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded of a good X to a given change to a price of itself‚ ceteris paribus. Price elasticity of demand is calculated by dividing the proportionate change in quantity demanded by the proportionate change in price. When PED is greater than one (PED > 1) demand is said to be elastic When PED is between zero to one (0 > PED > 1) demand in said to be inelastic When PED is equal to one (PED > 1) demand is said to be unit-elastic

Price elasticity of demand (PED) is a measure of how much the quantity demanded changes when there is a change in the price of the product. It can be calculated using the formula: PED= Percentage change in Qd of the product/ Percentage change in price of the product. When determining the price elasticity of demand‚ there are many possible outcomes which range from zero to infinity. If the PED value is between zero and one‚ then elasticity is said to be “Inelastic”‚ meaning there would be less

Price Elasticity Of Demand is a measure of the relationship between a change in the quantity demanded of a particular good and a change in its price. Price elasticity of demand is a term in economics often used when discussing price sensitivity. The formula for calculating price elasticity of demand is: “Price Elasticity of Demand = % Change in Quantity Demanded / % Change in Price”. If a small change in price is accompanied by a large change in quantity demanded‚ the product is said to be elastic

Income Elasticity of Demand The Income Elasticity of Demand measures the degree to which consumers respond to a change in their incomes by buying more or less of a particular good. The coefficient of income elasticity of demand is determined with the formula: (% change in quantity demanded) / (% change in income) (McConnell & Brue). Income elasticity of demand is used to see how sensitive the demand for a good is to an income change. The higher the income elasticity‚ the more sensitive demand
