ISC ECONOMICS 12 ELASTICITY OF DEMAND MCQs With Solved Answers

When percentage change in quantity demanded is more than the percentage change in price demand curve is?

If the percentage change in quantity demanded is greater than the percentage change in price, demand is said to be price elastic, or very responsive to price changes.

When percentage change in quantity demanded is less than the percentage change price the demand curve is

Answer and Explanation: 1) When the percentage change in the quantity demanded is less than the percentage change in price, then demand is C. inelastic.

When the percentage change in quantity demanded is greater than the percentage change in price of the commodity the demand for the commodity is said to be?

Own-Price Elasticity If the percent change in the quantity demanded is greater than the percent change in the price of a good, demand is said to be price elastic or more responsive to price changes. (Example: A 1-percent change in price induces a change in quantity demanded by more than 1 percent.)

When percentage change in quantity demanded is less than percentage change in price the demand curve is flatter steeper rectangular hyperbola horizontal?

Less than unitary elastic demand (or inelastic demand) is one which the percentage change in quantity demanded is less than that of percentage change in the price. The value of coefficient of price elasticity of demand will be less than one, i.e., ed< 1. In this case the demand curve is steeper.
