there are broadly classified into five types
1. Perfect price elasticity of demand
2. Perfect price in-elasticity of demand
3. Relative price elasticity of demand
4. Relative price in-elasticity of demand
5. Unity price elasticity of demand

∙ 9y agoThe elasticity of demand is a measure used in economics to show the responsiveness of the quantity demanded of a good or service. The degree of price elasticity, on the other hand, is the variation in demand that is not uniform with a change in price.

∙ 9y agoPrice elasticity of demand means how much the demand of an item changes in relationship to its price. Most items which are considered necessity items either have low price elasticity or none at all.

∙ 8y agoElasticity of Demand is a measure used in economics to show the responsiveness, of the quantity demanded of a good or service to a change in its price.
An example would be if the store lowers the price of an item, and they sell more of the product.

∙ 8y agoPrice elasticity of demand measures how much the quantity demanded responds to a change in the price of that product, computed as the percentage in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. If the quantity demanded changes substantially from a price, it can be said that demand is elastic.
If the quantity demanded changes are slight from a change in price, demand is said to be inelastic.

Explain what is meant by price and income elasticity of demand?
price elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of demand where by change in price of a commodity bring proportionate change in quantity demanded.
Is coal elastic or inelastic?
There are 2 different types price elasticity of demand and price elasticity of supply. If you meant to ask is demand for coal price elastic on inelastic, answer is yes, it is price inelastic. The demand for coal, is unlikely to drop much even if the price of it increases, it can be said that it is a 'necessity'. Since the quantity demanded decreases less than proportionate than the increase in price, it is said to be price inelastic.
What is meant by price inelastic?
Price inelastic means that the supply or demand of a product or service is unaffected by any changes in the price.
What is meant by the equilibrium price?
It is the price where demand equals supply in a competitive market.
What is meant by a price inelastic demand?
If the % change in quantity demanded is less than the % change in price it has a minor effect. In this case demand is not very responsive to a change in price. It is called inelastic! Mr Jon Link told me! :)

What is meant by concept of elasticity of demand?
The degree of responsiveness of change in demand as a result of change in its price is known as elasticity of demand. I mathematical language we can say that; Elasticity of demand = %age change in Quantity Demanded DIVIDED BY %age change in the Price.

What is meant by the term discrimination?
Answer: Price discrimination is the practice of one retailer, wholesaler, or manufacturer charging different prices for the same items to different customer. This is a widespread practice that does not necessarily imply negative discrimination. Early forms of price discrimination certainly existed in Jim Crow law states, where a black consumer might very likely pay more for the same quantity and items than a white consumer would. In general, this type of price discrimination is very rare today. Price discrimination, as it is now understood, is separated into degrees. First, second and third degree price discrimination exist and apply to different pricing methods used by companies. Much depends on the understanding of the market in segments, and also the consumer's ability to pay a higher or lower price, called elasticity of demand. A person who might pay more for an item is thought to have a low elasticity of demand. Another person who will not pay as much has a high elasticity of demand.
