Answer:

  • Paul Donut Franchisee : Perfectly Elastic Supply
  • P & G Facial Tissues : Elastic Supply
  • Papermate Pens : Inelastic Supply
  • Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : Perfectly Inelastic Supply

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Supply is sellers' quantity supplied response to price change. P(Es) = % change in supply / % change in price.

Supply can be classified by Price Elasticity of Supply, as undermentioned :

  1. Elastic Supply : P(Es) > 1 ; % change in supply > % change in price
  2. Inelastic Supply :  P(Es) < 1 ; % change in supply < % change in price
  3. Unitary Elastic : P (Es) = 1 ; % change in supply = % change in price
  4. Perfectly Elastic Supply : P(Es) = ∞ ; Supply responds infinitely to any slight price change & so prices are constant.
  5. Perfectly Elastic Supply : P (Es) = 0 ; Supply responds negligibly to massive price change & so quantity supplied is constant
  • Paul Donut Franchise : Unlimited Supply at constant price, so supply perfectly elastic
  • P & G facial tissues : % change in supply i.e 66% > % change in price i.e 10% , so supply is elastic
  • Papermate pens : % change in supply i.e 10 % < % change in price i.e 15% , so supply is inelastic
  • Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : % change in supply 15% negligible in relation to 400% price change , so supply is perfectly inelastic
