What are the 3 types of elasticity?
1)price elasticity of demand 2)income elasticity of demand 3)cross elasticity of demand
When a price of a good increased by 2 percent the quantity demanded decreased by 10 percent What is the price elasticity of demand?
Price elasticity of demand= percentage change in demand/percentage cgange in price 2 = % chnge in demand/10 % change in demand= 2*10 % change in demand= 20%
Explain what is meant by Price Elasticity of Demand?
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
Suppose the price elasticity of demand for bread is 0.20 If the price of bread falls by 10 percent the quantity demanded will increase by?
2%.
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 are the 2 extreme situations of price elasticity of demand?
The two extreme ranges of price elasticity of demand are Zero and Infinity.

Suppose the price elasticity of demand for textbooks is 2 and the price of textbooks increases by 10 by how much does the quantity demanded fall?
PED: Change in Q / Change in price. So: 2 = Change in Q / 10 Change in Q = 20

WHAT are Uses of PRICE ELASTICITY OF DEMAND?
There are several uses of Price Elasticity of Demand that is why firms gather information about the Price Elasticity of Demand of its products. A firm will know much more about its internal operations and product costs than it will about its external environment. Therefore, gathering data on how consumers respond to changes in price can help reduce risk and uncertainly. More specifically, knowledge of Price Elasticity of Demand can help the firm forecast its sales and set its price.Sales forecasting: The firm can forecast the impact of a change in price on its sales volume, and sales revenue (total revenue, TR). For example, if Price Elasticity of Demand for a product is (-) 2, a 10% reduction in price (say, from $10 to $9) will lead to a 20% increase in sales (say from 1000 to 1200). In this case, revenue will rise from $10,000 to $10,800.Pricing policy: Knowing Price Elasticity of Demand helps the firm decide whether to raise or lower price, or whether to price discriminate. Price discrimination is a policy of charging consumers different prices for the same product. If demand is elastic, revenue is gained by reducing price, but if demand is inelastic, revenue is gained by raising price.Non-pricing policy: When Price Elasticity of Demand is highly elastic, the firm can use advertising and other promotional techniques to reduce elasticity.
What is the meaning of elastricity demand?
The term elasticity indicates responsiveness of one variable to change in other variable.For e.g.,when variable x responds to change in variable y,variable x is said to be elastic.Likewise,demand is said to be elastic if it responds to change in price. There are three main determinants of demand,they are price of the commodity,income of the consumers,and price of the related goods.Thus,elasticity of demand means responsiveness of demand due to change in price of the commodity,income of the consumer,and price of the related gooods. Or you can say that,it measures the degree of change in the quantity demanded of the commodity in response to a given change in price of the commodity,change in consumer's income or price of the related goods. Accordingly,there are three main type of elasticities of demand: 1. Price elasticity of demand: Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of demand for a commodity due to change in it's price. 2. Income elasticity of demand: It indicates the responsiveness of demand to change in consumer's income.It is the degree of change of demand to a change in consumer's income. 3. Cross elasticity of demand: It refers to change in quantity demanded of commodity x as a result of changes in the price of commodity y. Here, x and y can be either substitute goods or complementary goods).
Determinants of own price 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... :)
Assume that the price of elasticity demand is -2 for a certain firm's product If the firm raises price the firm's manager can expect total revenue to?
