Price elasticity of supply is 2.5. At a price of Rs.5/unit its quantity supplied is 300 units. Calculate the quantity supplied at a price of Rs.4/unit
`{:(" P 5"),(" P"_(1)" 4,"),(ulbar(Delta"P -1")):}" "{:("Q 300"),("Q"_(1)" "?),(ulbar(DeltaQ" ?")):}` `P.e_(S)=(P)/(Q)xx(DeltaQ)/(DeltaP)" or "2.5=(5)/(300)xx(DeltaQ)/(-1)` `DeltaQ=-150` `DeltaQ=Q_(1)-Q" or "-150=Q_(1)-300` `Q_(1)=150`

A consumer buys 80 units of a good at a price of Rs. 4 per unit . When the price falls , he buys 100 If price elasticity of demand is (-) 1, find out
`E_(p)=(P)/(Q)xx(DeltaQ)/(DeltaP)` `(-)1=(40)/(80)xx(20)/(DeltaP)` `(-)1=(1)/(DeltaP)` `DeltaP=-1` New price `=P+DeltaP=4+(-1)=Rs.3`.

Price elasticity of demand of a good is (-) 2. At a price of Rs. 10 per unit 40 units of this good are bought . How units will be bought at a price of
`E_(P)=(P)/(Q)xx(DeltaQ)/(DeltaP)` `(-)2=(10)/(40)xx(DeltaQ)/(1)` `(-)80=10DeltaQ` `DeltaQ=-8` New `Q=Q+DeltaQ=40+(-8)=32` units.

Price elasticity of demand of a good is (-)2. The consumer buys a certain quantity of this good at a price of Rs. 8 per unit . When the price falls he
`E_(P)=(% "change in " Q_(d))/(% " change in P")` `(-)2=(50%)/(% " change in P")` `%` Change in P `=(50)/(-2)=-25%` New `P=P+%` change in P `=8+(-25% " change of " 8)...

When price of a good is Rs. 7 per unit a consumer busy 12 units . When price fails to Rs. 6 per unit he spends Rs. 72 on the good . Calculate price el
`{:(" Price"," Demand"),(" " 7," "12),(" "6," "(72)/(6)=12):}` `E_(P)=(P)/(Q)xx(DeltaQ)/(DeltaP)` `=(7)/(12)xx(0)/(-1)=0` The demand curve is parallel to the y- axis.

At price of Rs. 8 per unit, the quantity supplied of a commodity is 200 units. Its price elasticity of supply is 1.5 . If its price rises to Rs. 10 pe
`E_(s)=(P)/(Q_(s))xx(DeltaQ_(s))/(DeltaP)` `1.5=(8)/(200)xx(DeltaQ_(s))/(2)` `8DeltaQ_(s)=600` `DeltaQ_(s)=75` New `Q=Q_(s)+DeltaQ_(s)=200+75=275` units

The price elasticity of supply of a commodity is 2. When its price falls from Rs. 10 to Rs. 8 per unit, its quantity supplied falls by 500 units . Cal
`E_(s)=(P)/(Q)xx(DeltaQ)/(DeltaP),2=(10)/(Q)xx(-500)/(-2),4Q=5000,Q=1250` Supply at `Rs 8=Q+ DeltaQ=1250 +(-500)=750` units.

The price elasticity of supply of a commodity Y is half the price elasticity of supply of commodity X. 16 percent rise in price of X results in 40 per
`E_(s) ` of X `=(40)/(16)=2.5` `therefore " "E_(s)` of Y =`2.5 div 2=1.25` `E_(s)` of Y `=(%"change in supply")/(% "change in price")` `1.25=(%"change in supply")/(8)` % change in supply `=8xx1.25=10`...
