Formulas
Meaning and Basic Idea
E_d = Percentage change in demand for the good / Percentage change in price of the good
E_d = ΔQ/Q × P/ΔP
Methods of Measuring Price Elasticity
Ed = (ΔQ/Q × 100) / (ΔP/P × 100)
Ed = ΔQ/ΔP × P/Q
TE = P × Q
Ed = Lower part of the demand curve / Upper part of the demand curve
Ed = Lower part of the tangent line / Upper part of the tangent line
Degrees or Kinds of Price Elasticity
Ed = 0
Ed < 1
Ed = 1
Ed > 1
Ed = infinity
Total Expenditure Method
TE = P × Q
If price and total expenditure are inversely related, demand is elastic
If price and total expenditure are directly related, demand is inelastic
If total expenditure remains unchanged with price change, demand is unit elastic
