application of price elasticity of demand : 1. Production planning: It helps a producer to decide about the volume of production. When the demand is elastic‚ a producer has to produce different quantity of product and fixed quantity when the demand is inelastic. 2. It helps in fixing the prices of different goods: When the demand is elastic‚ the producer will change the price of the product according to change of demand and will approach the price decrease policy. Similarly when the price is in-elastic

the tendency of people in the town in making varying choices‚ which helped in the study of price elasticity of demand of Cigarettes. The price elasticity of demand in Cigarettes shows an elastic behaviour with select group of people and some show inelastic behaviour. Thus generalisation of such a concept would be neglecting significant number of population for studying the price elasticity of demand of Cigarettes. Also there were situation wherein we found infinitely elastic behaviour of demand. Though

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 1/1/2) T 4.

businessman would always raise prices when facing an inelastic demand curve‚ but might or might not raise prices when facing an elastic demand curve? Explain and justify your answers in detail. Price elasticity of demand is defined as percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. If the demand is elastic‚ consumer response is large relative to the change in price (e.g.‚ new car‚ airline travel). If demand is inelastic‚ consumers aren’t very responsive to price changes
