    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. If we assume there is some switching cost‚ and the cost is different from farmers‚ demand increase when price goes down. If we assume liner demand curve‚ we can say slope of demand curve is negative. Still‚ at the price of WTP‚

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
