If the elasticity is greater than 1, demand is considered elastic, meaning that consumers are highly responsive to price changes. Conversely, if the elasticity equals 0, demand is perfectly inelastic, indicating that quantity demanded does not change regardless of price fluctuations. In this case, consumers will purchase the same amount no matter the price.
greater than one
1)price elasticity of demand 2)income elasticity of demand 3)cross elasticity of demand
1. Number of Substitute Products - the greater the number of substitute products, the greater is its own price elasticity of demand. 2. Price of Product Relative to consumers income - the greater the price of product relative to consumers income the greater is it Price Elasticity. 3. Nature of Goods - whether it is luxury good or necessity goods. 4. Passage of Time - the longer the time lapsed the greater Price Elasticity. Hope this answer helps... :)

Cross elasticity in economics, also referred to as cross-price elasticity is used to measure the changes of the demand of a certain commodity to the price changes of another good.
If the elasticity is greater than 1, demand is considered elastic, meaning that consumers are highly responsive to price changes. Conversely, if the elasticity equals 0, demand is perfectly inelastic, indicating that quantity demanded does not change regardless of price fluctuations. In this case, consumers will purchase the same amount no matter the price.

Unitary elasticity is when the price elasticity of demand is exactly equal to one.
The greater will be the price elasticity of demand.
distinguish between price elasticity of demand and income elasticity of demand
These three determinants are listed here: nature of commodity -the more perishable a good,lower will its elasticity of demand,middle income groups have highly elastic demand ,goods having alternative uses have elastic demand,for eg.milk
To determine the elasticity of demand for a product or service, you can calculate the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. If the result is greater than 1, the demand is elastic; if it is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.
Unitary elastic is a demand whose elasticity is exactly equal to 1.
