Question
Answer
cross-price elasticity of demand   The percentage change in the demand of one good divided by the percentage change in the price of another good; it’s positive for substitutes, negative for complements, and zero for unrelated goods  
🗑
income elasticity of demand   The percentage change in demand divided by the percentage change in consumer income; the value is positive for normal goods and negative for inferior goods  
🗑
unit-elastic supply curve   A percentage change in price causes an identical percentage change in quantity supplied; depicted by a supply curve that is a straight line from the origin; the elasticity value equals 1.0  
🗑
inelastic supply   A price change has relatively little effect on quantity supplied; the percentage change in quantity supplied is less than the percentage change in price; the price elasticity of supply is less than 1.0  
🗑
unit-elastic supply   The percentage change in quantity supplied equals the percentage change in price; the price elasticity of supply equals 1.0  
🗑
elastic supply   A price change has a relatively large effect on quantity supplied; the percentage change in quantity supplied exceeds the percentage change in price; the price elasticity of supply exceeds 1.0  
🗑
perfectly elastic supply curve   A horizontal line, which means that any price decrease drops the quantity supplied to zero; the elasticity value is infinity  
🗑
perfectly inelastic supply curve   A vertical line, which means that a price change has no effect on the quantity supplied; the elasticity value is zero  
🗑
price elasticity of supply   Measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to a price change; the percentage change in quantity supplied divided by the percentage change in price  
🗑
perfectly inelastic demand curve   vertical line, which means that any price change has no effect on the quantity demanded; the elasticity value is zero  
🗑
unit-elastic demand curve   Everywhere along the demand curve, the percentage change in price causes an equal but offsetting percentage change in quantity demanded, so total revenue is unchanged; the elasticity has an absolute value of 1.0  
🗑
constant-elasticity demand curve   The type of demand that exists when price elasticity is the same everywhere along the curve; the elasticity value is unchanged  
🗑
perfectly elastic demand curve   A horizontal line, which means that any price increase would reduce quantity demanded to zero; the elasticity has an absolute value of infinity  
🗑
price elasticity of demand   Measures how responsive quantity demanded is to a price change; the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price  
🗑
inelastic demand   A change in price has relatively little effect on quantity demanded; the percentage change in quantity demanded is less than the percentage change in price; the resulting price elasticity has an absolute value less than 1.0  
🗑
unit-elastic demand   The percentage change in quantity demanded equals the percentage change in price; the resulting price elasticity has an absolute value of 1.0  
🗑
elastic demand   A change in price has a relatively large effect on quantity demanded; the percentage change in quantity demanded exceeds the percentage change in price; the resulting price elasticity has an absolute value exceeding 1.0  
🗑
total revenue   Price multiplied by quantity demanded at that price  
🗑
linear demand curve   A straight-line demand curve; such a demand curve has a constant slope but usually has a varying price elasticity  
🗑
