True or False: Suppose you are advising the Dairy Farmers of Canada on changes in
the milk market. Suppose the current price is $4.5 per gallon of milk and the quantity
demanded is 2.5 million gallons of milk per day. Suppose price elasticity of demand is
constant at 0.7. You are considering reducing the supply, so that the price rises to $5
per gallon. Total expenditure on milk by consumers will rise.
