What will be the % change in quantity demanded, when, the price elasticity of demand is 2 and the % change in price is equal to 5? |
5% 10% 15% 20% |
10% |
Price elasticity of demand (Ped) = \(\frac{\text {percentage change in quantity demanded for the good }}{\text {percentage change in price for the good }}\) 2 = \(\frac{\text {% change in quantity demanded for the good }}{\text { 5%}}\) % change in quantity demanded for the good = 2 * 5% % change in quantity demanded for the good = 10%
