"Elasticity," Michael Parkin 2008 Modular Level I, Vol. 2, pp. 10-12 Study Session 4-13-a calculate and interpret the elasticities of demand (price elasticity, cross elasticity, income elasticity) and the elasticity of supply, and discuss the factors that influence each measure Demand is relatively elastic, since the absolute value of the elasticity coefficient is greater than unity (10 / -5 = -2). Total revenues will expand. |
