Elastic.
This is the formula for elasticity:
Elasticity = (Quantity variation/Quantity)/(Price variation/Price)
Inelastic demand is the one in which a variation in price doesn’t lead to an important variation in the quantity bought by consumers. So, in the formula, numerator is much smaller than denominator, so the fraction is lower than 1. That happens with necessary goods (typically, food).
On the contrary, elastic demand is the one in which a variation in the price leads to an important variation in the quantity bought by consumers, and that means the fraction is higher than 1. So if I sell the product at a lower price, I will sell much more product.
Considering the formula: R = P*Q, when demand is elastic, I will have much more sold quantity with just a little lower price, which leads to a higher revenue.

Suppose that the USA can make 15,000,000 cars or 20,000,000 bottles of wine with one year's worth of labor. France can make 10,0
Artemon [7]

Answer: The answer is as follows:

Explanation:

From these numbers, we can conclude that USA has a comparative in producing cars and France has a comparative advantage in producing bottles.

Opportunity cost shows that how many units of one good have to be foregone in order to produce one additional unit of other good.

In USA:

Opportunity cost of producing bottles = \frac{15000000}{20000000}

= 0.75

Opportunity cost of producing cars = \frac{20000000}{15000000}

= 1.33

In France:

Opportunity cost of producing bottles = \frac{10000000}{18000000}

= 0.55

Opportunity cost of producing cars = \frac{18000000}{10000000}

= 1.8

Above calculations clearly shows that USA has a lower opportunity in producing 1 unit of car as compared to the France, so it has a comparative advantage in producing cars.

Whereas, France has a lower opportunity in producing 1 unit of bottle as compared to the USA, so it has a comparative advantage in producing Bottles.
