introduction We have studied a host of demand determinants and how supply and demand curves act together to determine market equilibrium‚ and how shifts in these two curves are reflected in prices and quantities consumed and how. The change in these demand determinants brings about a change in the market demand for goods and services. Not all curves are the same‚ however‚ and the steepness or flatness of a curve can greatly alter the affect of a shift on equilibrium. Elasticity refers to the relative responsiveness

higher gasoline prices? Most studies report that when US. gas prices rise by 10 percent‚ the quantity purchased falls by 1 to 2 percent. In September 2005‚ the retail gasoline price was $2.90 a gallon‚ about $1.00 higher than in September 2004‚ but purchases of 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.
