Review price elasticity of demand and supply.  Price elasticity describes the sensitivity between quantity demanded/supplied and price when a change in price occurs.  A relatively lower change in quantity versus a change in price means the product is more price inelastic; a higher relative change in quantity versus a price change indicates more price elastic.  Review the substitution effect and income effect dynamics.
