Price elasticity of demand (PED) is defined as the measure of responsiveness in the quantity demanded for a commodity as a result of change in price of the same commodity. It is a measure of how consumers react to a change in price. Oil is inelastic, as it has few substitutes and the product is considered a necessity.
