Suppose that the price of cotton has increased from AED 100 per kilo to AED 150 per kilo. Suppose that the quantity demanded of this cotton was 450,000 tons in the market of cotton and after changing the prices of cotton this quantity is changed to 200,000 tons. 1- Calculate the PED (price elasticity of demand) ( 2- Is the demand in this market elastic or not? And why? 3- To increase the revenue of the seller, is it better to increase the price or decrease it? and why?
1) Know: What is meant by Price Elasticity of > Additionally, explain demand Elastic, Unitary, and Inelastic relative to price changes and impacts on total revenue (Price * Quantity). Note: Total Revenue = Price ($) * Quantity; Change in Total Revenue is Change in Price * Change in Quantity Equation & graphical analysis required. Refer to class discussion/ notes below. > Important: Elastic: Ed > 1; Unitary, Ed = 1; Inelastic, Ed < 1.
. Determinants of the price elasticity of demand Consider some determinants of the price elasticity of demand: • The availability of close substitutes • Whether the good is a necessity or a luxury • How broadly you define the market • The time horizon being considered A good without any close substitutes is likely to have relatively...........................( elastic/inelastic) demand, since consumers cannot easily switch to a substitute good if the price of the good rises. A good’s price elasticity of demand depends in part on how necessary it is relative to other goods. If the following goods are priced approximately the same, which one has the least elastic demand?(multiple choice) a) Sports car b) A heart valve for heart attack victims The price elasticity of demand for a good also depends on how you define the good. Organize the goods found in the following table by indicating which is likely to have the most elastic…
