b. Transport operators in Belize received permission to increase their fares 15
percent, and they anticipated that revenues would increase by about 15
percent. When the 15 percent increase was enacted revenues increased by only
about 5 percent. What can you infer about the elasticity of demand for
transportation? What were operators assuming about the elasticity of demand?

Analyze the situation using economic reasoning. A reference must be provided for the article 1. Has there been an increase or decrease in demand? Factors that could shift the demand curve include changes in preferences, changes in income, changes in the price of substitutes or complements, or changes in the number of consumers in the market. 2. Has there been an increase or decrease in supply? Factors that could shift the supply curve include changes in costs of materials, wages, or other inputs; changes in technology; or changes in the number of firms in the market. 3. Draw a supply - and - demand graph to explain this change. Be sure to label your graph and clearly indicate which curve shifts.
