Appeared in Year: 2010
Describe in Detail
At a price of Rs. 5 per unit of commodity A, total revenue is Rs. 800. When its price rises by 20 percent, total revenue increases by Rs. 400. Calculate its price elasticity of supply.
Explanation
In this initial price (P1) = 5
Total revenue (TR) =800
So, Total revenue = price Quantity
800 = 5 Quantity
Quantity = = 160
Given: 20 % rise in price, means P = 20%
20 % of 5 = =1
So, P1 = 5+1… (66 more words) …

Describe in Detail
Distinguish between (i) elastic and inelastic supply and (ii) perfectly elastic and perfectly inelastic supply.
Explanation
| Characteristics | Elastic Supply | Inelastic Supply |
| Definition | Elastic supply means increase in price causes a greater percent increase in supply. | Inelastic supply. This means that an increase in price causes a less percent increase in supply. It has a price elasticity of supply of less than 1. |
| How many price elasticity?… (107 more words) … |

Explanation
Price of input used in production and it shares negative relationship with supply of good. If input price decreases than cost of production get decreased so, producers increase the production of good with decrease in input prices and supply of good increase.
