Classification of Price Elasticity of Demand 1. Price Elastic Demand (% ΔQd > % ΔP) ϵ > 1 If the value of price elasticity coefficient is greater than one in absolute value. This means that a small change in price results to a greater change in quantity demanded. Goods which are elastic tend to have some or all of the following characteristics: They are luxury goods They are expensive and a big % of income e.g. sports cars and holidays Goods with many substitutes and a very competitive market.

INTRO Definition of ’Price Elasticity Of Demand’ A measure of the relationship between a change in the quantity demanded of a particular good and a change in its price. Price elasticity of demand is a term in economics often used when discussing price sensitivity. The formula for calculating price elasticity of demand is: Price Elasticity of Demand = % Change in Quantity Demanded / % Change in Price If a small change in price is accompanied by a large change in quantity demanded‚ the product

Price elasticity is the “measure of how much one variable responds to change in another economic variable” (Hubbard & O’Brien‚
