Meaning that if prices change by 1%, the change in quantity would be 2.5%
(at $100/piece, 1000 goods are consumed. if the price rises to $101, only 975 goods are consumed. And if the price falls to $99, 1025 goods are consumed.)
distinguish between price elasticity of demand and income elasticity of demand
1)price elasticity of demand 2)income elasticity of demand 3)cross elasticity of demand
Unitary elasticity is when the price elasticity of demand is exactly equal to one.
In economics , the cross elasticity of demand and cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demand of a good to a change in the price of another good.

Unitary elasticity is when the price elasticity of demand is exactly equal to one.
Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsivenss of demand for a product to a change in the price of another good.
In economics , the cross elasticity of demand and cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demand of a good to a change in the price of another good.
role of price elasticity of demand in managerial decisions
The price elasticity refers to the change in demand due to the change in price. The income elasticity of demand on the other hand refers to the change in demand due to the change in income.
Not exactly. They serve the same purpose, but calulated a little bit differently. Slope equals change in price divided by change in quantity. Elasticity equals changes in quantity to be divided by changes in price
The price elasticity of supply (or demand) is the percentage change in supply/demand for a one-percentage change in price. Eg, if the price elasticity is 1, a 1% change in the price of a good causes a 1% drop in price. (Note that elasticity is given in absolute value, since it is usually negative.)
Price elasticity of demand is positively correlated with the existence of substitute goods.
Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsivenss of demand for a product to a change in the price of another good.
