The answer is Price Elasticity of Demand tool.
The answer will most likley be (b) quantity supplied
Price elasticity of demand is the responsiveness of quantity demanded of a good to a change in its price.Basically it describes how consumers react to a price change.The price elasticity of demand is calculated byPED= %Quantity demanded : % Change of Priceor in words: the percentage change in the quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price
Substitution effect
It will be very sensitive to price change. A change in the price will change the quantity supplied by a factor greater than 1. ps: Price elasticity of supply= (% change in quantity supplied)/(% change in price)

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.

The consumers would buy less of that product
The negative incentive will cause consumers to purchase less of a good or service if it is of lower quality
Elasticity of supply refers to the responsiveness of guantity supplied of a commodity to changes in its own price. And the formulafor measuring elasticity of supply percentagechange in quantity supplied/ %change in price
The negative incentive will cause consumers to purchase less of a good or service if it is of lower quality
Monopolies can exploit their position and charge high prices because consumers have no alternative. High prices may affect a high level of demand though depending on how consumers react to the high prices.
Elasticity of demand measures how much demand for a product will change if the price of that product is changed. Something highly elastic will be greatly affected by price changes (something like a hotdog for example, if a vendor raises his price then demand will drop because people can go elsewhere-demand is elastic). So management must be aware of how consumers will react to price changes. Normally, lowering the price of a good will bring in more customers if the demand for that good is elastic. If it is inelastic, then a lower price will not increase demand much.
