Elasticities

Price elasticity of demand (PED) is a measure of the responsiveness of the quantity of a good demanded to changes in its price. PED is calculated along a given demand curve. In general, if there is a ________ responsiveness of quantity demanded, demand is referred to as being price ________; if there is a _______ responsiveness, demand is price _________.

When 0 < PED < 1, price demand is _________

When 1 < PED < ∞, price demand is _________

When PED = 1, price demand is _________

When PED = ∞, price demand is __________

Which demand curve is more elastic?

When demand is ___________, an increase in price causes _________ in total revenue, while a decrease in price causes _______ in total revenue.

Cross-price elasticity of demand for two goods is ________ (XED > 0) when the demand for one good and the price of the other good change in _______direction: when the price of one ____________, the demand for the other __________.

Two goods with a XED of +0.7 are ______________ for each other than two goods with a XED of +0.3.

Income elasticity of demand is positive when demand and income change in the same direction. A positive YED indicates that the good in question is __________.
