What is the price elasticity for a good when there is a 10 percent decrease in price which results in a 2 percent increase in quantity demanded?
2/10=0.2 <1 the good is price inelastic
What is the demand elasticity of P 100-4Q when Q 20?
The quantity, Q, demanded at price P is 100 - 4Q So Q = 25 - P/4 And therefore, the demand elasticity is -1/4 or -0.25, whatever the value of Q.
How would you find a remaining quantity if only the percentage decrease is given?
If the original quantity is A and the ecrease is p% then the quantity of the decrease itself is A*p/100 and the remaining quantity is A - A*p/100
What is percent decrease of 1675 percent?
This is a nonsensical questions. You can not decrease a quantity beyond 100% as that eliminates the item.
What does the p and q stand for on the axis of a demand graph?
Economics: P= Price and Q = Quantity Demanded.
Suppose the elasticity of demand for cereal is 1. If cereal increases in price by 25 percent how much will the quantity demanded decrease by?
25 percent
Suppose the elasticity of demand for cereal is 1 if cereal increases in price by 25 percent how much will the quantity demanded decreased by?
25 percent
How is price and quantity demanded related?
As a general rule, as the price level increases the quantity demanded will decrease, and vice versa. If the good or service is inelastic (e.g. a necessity or necessary to survival) a change in price will affect the quantity in a less than proportionate manner. That is, if there is a increase in price, the quantity demanded will increase only a small (if any) amount. If the good or service is elastic (e.g. luxury items) a change in price will affect quantity demanded more than proportionately. So if the the price increases, quantity demanded will decrease a large (more than proportionate) amount.
If the income elasticity of demand for a product is -0.5 then?
Income Elasticity:Income Elasticity of Demand is measure of percentage change in demand for a commodity due to 1% change in income of consumers. Negative Income Elasticity :Increase in Income of consumers lead to decrease in the quantity demanded for a commodity.Example: unbranded items.so if Income Elasticity for product is -0.5 then its demand will be decreases as Income of consumers increases.
When there is a change in the quantity demanded what happens to the demand curve?
Decrease in quantity demanded usually results from an increase in price and vice versa. When the price of a product increases, the demand curve itself is not affected. However, the quantity demanded decreases to a higher point along the demand curve.
Price elasticity of demand in the marker place?
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
According to the law of demand , as prices decrease , the quantity of demand?
Nearly all demand curves share the fundamental similarity that they slope down from left to right, embodying the law of demand: As the price increases, the quantity demanded decreases, and, conversely, as the price decreases, the quantity demanded increases.
What is abnormal demand?
Abnormal demand curve is a curve which slopes downwards from left to right indicating that price and quantity demanded has an inverse relationship and as price falls quantity demanded increase and as price increases quantity demanded decrease, this brings about a shift along the same demand curve

What is the price of elasticity of demand?
The responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in the price of a good
The price elasticity of demand is a measure of the?
responsiveness of a quantity demanded to a change in price
