    Study Notes

    Elasticity of Demand

    • Goods with relatively inelastic demand tend to be essential items, such as medicines, or habit-forming products like tobacco and addictive substances.
    • Inelastic demand means that changes in price have a relatively small effect on the quantity demanded.
    • For relatively inelastic demand, the elasticity of demand value is less than 1, indicating that a 1% change in price will result in a less than 1% change in quantity demanded.
    • Demand is said to be elastic when changes in price have a relatively large effect on the quantity demanded.
    • When the price elasticity of demand is zero, it means that the quantity demanded does not respond at all to changes in price.
