Relationships of Changes in Price‚ Price Elasticity and Total Revenue 1. By definition‚ total revenue (TR) is obtained by multiplying quantity demanded of a product (Qx) by price (Px)‚ that is‚ TR = Qx Px. (1) In class‚ by taking the derivative of the above total revenue equation with respect to price (dTR/dPx)‚ we obtain the following general functional relation: dTR/dPx = Qx (1 + Ep) (2). In Equation (2)‚ Ep represents the price elasticity of demand. Since Ep is

Price elasticity of demand and practical application. Price elasticity of demand Price elasticity of demand is a measure to show the responsiveness‚ or elasticity‚ of the quantity demanded of a good or service to a change in its price. More precisely‚ it gives the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to a one percent change in price ( i.e. holding constant all the other determinants of demand‚ such as income). Practical application of price elasticity : Practical application

practical application of Price elasticity and Income elasticity of demand. Practical application of price elasticity of demand is as follows: • Production planning - It helps the producer to decide about the volume of production. If the demand for his products is inelastic‚ specific quantities can be produced while he has to produce different quantities if the demand is elastic. • Helps in fixing the prices of different goods - It helps a producer to fix his price of his product. If the demand
