Answer:

coefficient = 0

Explanation:

We have the formula to calculate the price elasticity of demand as following:

<em>Elasticity coefficient = % Change in quantity/ % Change in price</em>

As given:

+) The percentage change in price is: (120-150)/150= - 20%

+) The quantity bought remains unchanged - which means the percentage change in quantity demanded is 0%

=> <em>Elasticity coefficient = % Change in quantity/ % Change in price</em>

<em>= 0/-20 = 0</em>

<em />

<em>So the coefficient of price elasticity of demand in this example would be 0</em>

11 units at $17 each, 11 units at $28 each and the remaining 4 units i.e 26 units - 22 units taken at $22 each

So,

= 11 units × $17 + 11 units × $28 + 4 units × $22

= $187 + $308 + $88

= $583

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:
