The Changing Price Elasticity of Demand for Domestic Airline Travel Consumers make economic decisions as to what they buy based largely on price. More specifically‚ the change in the amount of a good purchased is often highly dependent on its change in price. That measure of responsiveness is defined as the price elasticity of demand. Mathematically‚ it is often expressed as: Ed = - percent change in quantity demanded / percent change in price‚ or -(dQ/Q)/(dP/P). The minus sign is often

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 always
