Answer: d. a decrease in the quantity demanded of 30%
Explanation:
Price elasticity of a good is used to measure the magnitude of change in the quantity demanded of the good as a result of a change in price.
Price elasticity = Change in Quantity demanded / Change in Price
2 = Change in quantity demanded / 15%
Change in Quantity demanded = 2 * 15% = 30%
The elasticity is listed as positive but is supposed to be negative even though this can cause confusion. Normal goods are assumed to have a negative elasticity so unless stated otherwise, assume elasticity is negative.
This is why the change is a decrease in quantity demanded.
Answer:
b. supply is represented graphically by a curve and quantity supplied as a point on that curve.
Explanation:
Qunatity supplied shows how qunatity of a product changes in response to changes in price of that good. According to the law of supply, the higher the price of good, the higher the quantity supplied and the lower the price of a good, the lower the quantity supplied. This shows that quantity supplied has a direct relationship with price.
Changes in quantity supplied is shown by movement along a supply curve.
Changes in supply is caused by other factors other than changes in price. Some of these factors are :
Changes in price of similar goods
Tax
Change in number of suppliers
Technological advancement
Changes in supply is shown by movement of the supply curve either to the left or to the right and not a movement along the supply curve.
