brand study its price elasticity of demand and relate it to revenue. Say how the REVENUE of the product increases or decreases because of the ELASTICITY. The elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded of a good‚ to change in its price‚ price of other goods and change in consumer’s income. Accordingly elasticity of demand is of three types: Price elasticity of demand Income elasticity of demand Cross elasticity of demand Price elasticity of demand: it is the ratio

(Hint: What happens to price if there is a bumper crop? What is the price elasticity of demand for wheat? Is it inelastic or elastic? What happens to total revenue if there is an increase in supply?) If a product like corn or wheat has a bumper crop season‚ the selling price for the good would fall. This is because a bumper crop season indicates that the product had a bountiful crop growth and harvest; therefore‚ supply for the product would be excess. This means that the price for the product would

One definition of elasticity is what happens to consumer demand for a good when prices increase. As the price of a good rises‚ consumers will usually demand a lower quantity of that good‚ perhaps by consuming less‚ substituting other goods‚ and so on and the demand of complementary product will also be less. The greater the extent to which demand falls as price rises‚ the greater the price elasticity of demand. Conversely‚ as the price of a good falls‚ consumers will usually demand a greater quantity

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 of his product

State the factors affecting the price elasticity of demand? The type of product will affect the price elasticity of demand i.e. a necessity such as petrol will have a inelastic demand as it is a must have for consumers so a change in price will cause only a minor change in price whereas if a product is not a necessity for consumers it will have an elastic demand meaning a small change in price could lead to a greater change in quantity demanded The proportion of the consumers income spent on a product
