gasoline fell by only 35 percent. Source: The New York limes‚ October 13‚ 2005 1. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for gasoline implied by what most studies have found. (2.90-1.90/1.90)= 52.6 2. Compare the elasticity implied by the data for the period from September 2004 to September 2005 with that implied by most studies. What might explain the difference? Considering the elasticity is greater than 1 this means that this good is very elastic‚ so elastic that it is not as heavily affected

1. Compute the price elasticity of demand between these two points. Let quantity demanded = Q‚ Q1= 400 meals/day‚ and Q2= 450 meals/day Let price = P‚ P1= $20‚ and P2= $18 The change in quantity demanded = Q2-Q1 = 450-400= 50 The change in price = P2-P1= $18-$20= -2 The average in demand = (Q2+Q1)/2= (450+400)/2= 850/2=425 The average in price = (P2+P1)/2 = (18+20)/2 =38/2= 19 The percentage change in quantity demand = change in quantity demanded/the average in quantity demand =50/425 = 0.1174 =

There are several examples that come to mind when I think of price elasticity. Included in my list are fuel‚ cigarettes‚ electricity‚ and toilet paper. Price elasticity means that the behaviors of supply and demand are not affected when the price of that particular item rises (changes). Our local power companies experience price elasticity on the energy that we demand‚ when they continually raise prices but the amount of consumer usage is unaffected. In some parts of the country their may
