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! :)
If a price increase has little or no effect the demand for the product is?
When a price increase has little or no effect on the demand for a product, it is inelastic.
An elasticity measure less than one means that demand is what?
for elasticity less than one the demand will be inelastic, i.e there will be very less effect of price on the demand.It will be relative inelastic or inelastic.
What is a price cut when the demand for a normal good is price inelastic?
Demand is inelastic when changes the in price of a commodity do not effect (or have very little effect) the quantity of that product demanded. For most commodities, demand decreases with price increases and demand increases with price decreases.
If the prices have a little effect on the quantity of a product demanded the product is said to have?
inelastic demand
You want the characteristics of perfect inelastic demand curve?
A verticle demand curve, where a change in price does not effect quantity.

What questions is the price elasticity of demand designed to answer?
Price elasticity of demand is used to determine how changes in price will effect total revenue. If demand is elastic(>1) a change in price will result in the opposite change in total revenue.(+P=-TR) When demand is unit elastic(=1) a change in price wont change total revenue. If demand is inelastic a change in price will result in a change in total revenue in the same direction.(+P=+TR)
Why demand for soft drink as a whole inelastic but demand for Coca Cola is elastic?
the demand for cold drink as whole is inelastic bcoz the price wont have much effect on its demandbt price for coca cola is elastic because if pric of coca cola will increase then its substitute pepsi is available
Why is the ordinary demand curve flatter than a compensated demand curve if the good is a normal good but the reverse is the case if the good is inferior?
because the ordinary demand curve ignores the income effect of price changes.also since the compensated demand curve is less inelastic than an ordinary demand curve.
If because a modest price increase has little or no effect the demand for the product is?
If a modest price increase has little no no effect on the demand it means that the product is inelastic. Inelastic goods are those that people will need no matter what the price is, such as most medications, and food as a whole (not specific brands). Elastic goods are defined as goods were the demand fluctuates as the price fluctuates. These are different brands of foods (If Dole starts to charge more for apple juice consumers will switch to Tropicana orange juice.)
What is the Difference between income effect and substitution effect?
Income effect-change in the amount that consumers will buy because their income changed.substitution effect-change in the amount that consumers will buy because they purchase goods instead.substitution effect the change in demand for a good when the relative price between a good and its substitute changes. income effect the change in demand for a good when the income of the consumer change.
