The correct option is C.
Explanation: Price elasticity is the measure of the rate of change in the level of quantity demanded due to a change in the level of price.
Price elasticity is usually negative, this means that it follows the law of demand; as price increases quantity demanded decreases.
Also, another incidence that can affect price elasticity is an availability of cheaper alternatives. If cheaper alternatives of a particular product are introduced into the market, the demand for that product will reduce, because consumers will abandon it for its cheaper alternatives, thereby driving the elasticity of that product higher.
Therefore, in the scenario given above, the elasticity is higher than -1.2 because there are new brands that have just been introduced into the market.

If the questions are “would
I choose to buy the book in the first place”, and “Would I sell the book at the
end of the course”, the answer to both questions is yes. The benefit of buying
the book for the course is $400 dollars, which is greater than the sales price
of $250. Thus, I would buy the book. At the end of the course, the benefit of
keeping the book is $50, while my potential sales price is $125 (50% of 250).
Thus, I can sell the book for more than it is worth to me, so I will sell the
book at the end of the course.
