What are the factors that determine the price elasticity of demand? The durability of the product: Perishable goods have inelastic demand as their consumption cannot be postponed. On the other hand, durable goods have elastic demand as their consumption can be postponed (in case the price of that product rises). Availability of substitutes: Goods having substitutes have elastic demand and vice versa. For example, tea and coffee. They are close substitute. Suppose if there is an increase in price of coffee. In this situation, people can easily shift to tea. So demand of coffee will be quite price sensitive. Habitual Goods: These goods have inelastic demand. For example, cigarettes, alcohol, tobacco etc. If the price of such products increases, the consumers will not reduce the consumption significantly as they are habituated to consume such products. Income level: The products demanded by people with low incomes tend to have elastic demand. This is because a small increase in the price of any such product will create a significant impact on the monthly Nature of the goods: Elasticity of demand also depends on whether the commodity is a necessity or a luxury. Goods which are necessities tend to have inelastic demand whereas demand of luxury goods tend to be elastic. People generally prefer not to cut down consumption of necessities even in case of price increase.

Some of the main characteristics of economics are as follows: 1. Micro in Nature: Business economics is micro-economics in nature. This is due to the study of business economics mainly at the level of the firm. Generally a business manager is concerned with problems of his own business unit. He does not study the economic problems of an economy as a whole. 2. Basis of Theory of Markets and Private Enterprises: Business economics largely uses the theory of markets and private enterprise. It uses the theory of the firm and resource allocation of private enterprise economy. 3. Pragmatic in Approach: Business economics is pragmatic in its approach. It does not involve itself with the theoretical controversies of economics. Yet it does not relegate the realities of business decision-making to the background by bringing in abstract assumptions. While economic theory abstracts from realities of the individual business units to build up its theories, managerial economics takes proper note of the particular economic environment in which a firm works. 4. Normative in Nature: Business economics is also called normative economics which prescribes standards or norms for policy making. Business economics is prescriptive rather than descriptive in nature. In economic theory, we try to explain economic bahaviour: in business economics, we try to prescribe policies for a business manager which are most likely applied to achieve his objectives. In economic theory, we build ‘laws’ such as the law of Demand and the Law of Diminishing Returns. In business economics we apply these laws for policy planning at the level of a firm. 5. Macro Analysis: Macro economics which deals with the principles of economic behaviour for the economy as a whole is also useful for business economics. A business unit operates within some economic environment which is in turn shaped by the behaviour of the economy as a whole. Therefore, business manager must know the external forces working over his business environment.

No.  the consumer can't be indifferent between the two.

If the consumer's preferences are monotonic, she cannot be indifferent between the combinations (10, 8) and (8, 6). Because, the first combination (10, 8) allows more of both the goods as compared to the second combination (8, 6). Implying that first combination offers higher level of satisfaction, and the consumer must prefer it to the other.

  • Production possibility frontier or production possibility curve shows all possible combinations of two set of goods that an economy can produce with available resources and given technology, assuming that all resources are fully and efficiently utilized.
  • Economizing of resources means utilisation of resources in best possible manner to maximize output.
  • Production Possibility Frontier or Curve Features(a) Slopes downward from left to right because if production of one commodity is to be increased then production of other commodity has to be sacrificed as there is scarcity of resources.(b) Concave to the origin because of increasing marginal opportunity cost or (MRT)
  • The Production possibility curve will shift under following two condition:(a) change in resources, (b) Change in technology of production for both the goods.
  • Rightward shift of PPF shows increase in resources or improvement in technology.Ex- Labour becoming more skilled, improvement in technology, increase in productivity of land.
  • Leftward shift of PPF shows the decrease in resources or degradation of technology in the economy.
  • The Production possibility curve will rotate outward under following two condition:  (a) Improvement in technology in favour of one commodity (b) Growth of resources for the production of one commodity

The following conditions apply to achieve the consumer  equilibrium: 1.Budget line should be tangent to the indifference curve-because only at this point does the consumer get maximum satisfaction and it is within his budget. 2. Slope of the price line should be equal to the slope of the indifference curve-consumers only get maximum satisfaction at a point where the price line is tangent to the highest possible indifference curve from below. 3.Indifference curve should be convex to the origin-this ensures that at the point of equilibrium ,the marginal rate of substitution is diminishing.

Price Discrimination: Price discrimination is a situation when a monopolist charges different price from different buyers of the same product. This is generally done to maximise profits.

Product Differentiation: Product differentiation is a situation when different producers under monopolistic competition, try to differentiate their product in terms of its shape, size, packaging, trademark or brand name. This is done to attract buyers from the rival firms in the market.

A price ceiling is a government-imposed price control or limit on how high a price is charged for a product. Governments intend price ceilings to protect consumers from conditions that could make necessary commodities unattainable. It is the legislated or government imposed maximum level of price that can be charged by the seller. Since price ceiling is lower than the equilibrium price thus the imposition of the price ceiling leads to excess demand.
The following are the consequences and effects of price ceiling:
1) An effective price ceiling will lower the price of a good, which decreases the producer surplus. The effective price ceiling will also decrease the price for consumers,but any benefit gained from that will be minimized by the decreased sales due to the drop in supply caused by the lower price.
2) If a ceiling is to be imposed for a long period of time, a government may need to ration the good to ensure availability for the greatest number of consumers.
3) Prolonged shortages caused by price ceilings can create black markets for that good.
4) Due to artificially lowering the price, the demand becomes comparatively higher than the supply. This leads to the emergence of the problem of excess demand.
