Price Elasticity of Supply. The price elasticity of supply is calculated as the percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price.
Using the Midpoint Method
PES = ((Q2-Q1) / ((Q2 + Q1) / 2)) / ((P2-P1) / ((P2 + P1) / 2))
PES = (((10) - (7)) / (((10) + (7)) / 2)) / (((50) - (40)) / (((50) + (40)) / 2))
PES = 1.59
the elasticity of beth's labor supply between the wages of $ 40 and $ 50 per hour is approximately 1.59
In this case, to 1% rise in price causes an increase in quantity supplied of 1.59%
