There are some reasons that may affect the decrease of price elasticity of supply among the three districts. Theoretically‚ the land restriction and increase in the transaction cost will cause a negative effect on the elasticity through different channels. The insufficient land resources in Hong Kong will physically limit the housing supply‚ but the land sale system makes it even worse. The land sale system in Hong Kong restricted the supply of land by abandoning regular selling after 1998. There

By Wal-Mart supplying organic foods to their customers at the "Wal-Mart" price‚ keeps suppliers and competitors on their toes

1. Compute the elasticities for each independent variable. Note: Write down all of your calculations. When P = 500‚ C = 600‚ I = 5500‚ A = 10000 and M = 5000‚ using regression equation‚ QD = -5200 - 42*500 + 20*600 + 5.2*5500 + 0.2*10000 + 0.25*5000 = 17650 Price elasticity = (P/Q)*(dQ/dP) From regression equation‚ dQ/dP = -42. So‚ price elasticity EP= (P/Q) * (-42) = (-42) * (500 / 17650) = -1.19 Likewise‚ EC = 20 * 600 / 17650 = 0.68 EI = 5.2 * 5500 / 17650 = 1.62

Demand is the quantity which people are willing to buy at a partivular price at a particular time. The law of demand states that at a high price people will demand less and at a low price people will demand more. Demand is therefore a set of relationships between price and quantity. Representing demand: Demand can be represented by means of a demand table or demand curve(graph). The demand curve usually has a negative gradient which slopes downwards from left to right. The demand table
