    Price elasticity of demand (PED) is a measure of how much the quantity demanded changes when there is a change in the price of the product.  It can be calculated using the formula: PED= Percentage change in Qd of the product/ Percentage change in price of the product.  When determining the price elasticity of demand‚ there are many possible outcomes which range from zero to infinity. If the PED value is between zero and one‚ then elasticity is said to be “Inelastic”‚ meaning there would be less
