If two negatively sloped demand curves intersect then
flatter the curve more the elasticity,steeper the curve less the elasticity.
If two negatively sloped demand curves intersect then elasticity of demand at the point of intersection will be
No. elasticity of demand will me more on a flatter curve than on the steeper curve because since price elasticity of demand = %change in /% change in price and hence in the flatter demand curve the change in price will be lesser which will mean that the change in Quantity will be divided by a smaller number.
Which of the following will have inelastic demand?
Demand for medicine is in-elastic as it falls in category of a necessity good.
The value of elasticity in case of a horizontal line will be
price elasticity of demand = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price,
which tends to infinity in case of horizontal demand curve
Which of the following will have elastic demand?
It is only option of non-necessity/mandatory good among given options.
What is the relationship between slope and the demand curve?
The slope of a demand curve is ∆P/∆Q. If the price falls, we write -∆P/∆Q or if price rises demand falls, we write ∆P/∆Q.
A rise in the income of the consumer leads to a fall in the demand for commodity ‘x ’. What type of good is commodity ‘x ’?
An inferior good is a type of good for which demand declines as the level of income increases.
The substitute goods of a normal good are those that can be used
Substitute goods are those goods that can satisfy the same necessity, they can be used for the same end.
One factor that causes a leftward shift of the demand curve out of the following is
A leftward shift in the demand curve indicates a decrease in demand because consumers are purchasing fewer products for the same price.
One factor that causes a movement along the demand curve of a commodity
Movements along a demand curve happen only when the price of the good changes.
