Answer:
Price elasticity of demand = Percentage in quantity demanded / Percentage change in price
We already have the percentage change in quantity demanded as -4.3%.
We need to find the percentage change in price using the midpoint method.
= (New price - Old price) ÷ ((New Price + Old price) / 2)
Old price = 1.50 - 0.25 = $1.25
Percentage change in price = (1.50 - 1.25) ÷ ((1.50 + 1.25) / 2)
= 18.18%
Price elasticity of demand = -4.3% / 18.18%
= -0.24
