yes, I agree with the given statement.frozen french fries can be difine like some luxury goods

One of the factors of the price elasticity of demand (in this case it the same as supply) is to classify goods as luxury items or necessities: the demand for essential goods is inelastic or less elastic; the demand for luxury goods is elastic as a person can refinance the purchase of luxury goods or even refuse from it at all.
