Question

Points on Demand Curve       Price(Per ounce)   Quantity (Ounces per show)

D                                                              $0.35                   6

E                                                               $0.30                   9

G                                                               $0.20                  16

H                                                              $0.15                    20

(a) Compute the price elasticity between point D to point E and G to H.

Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places. Do not include a minus sign Use the mid-point formula.

D to E =

G to H =

Explanation / Answer

D to point E = ((9-6)/6)/((0.3-0.35)/0.35) =3.50

G to H =((20-16)/16)/((0.15-0.20)/.20) = 1.00
