Calculate the elasticity of supply if a 15 %increase in the price of soya bean oil increases its supply from 300 to 345 units
Price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness to the supply of a good or service after a change in its market price. Elastic means the product is considered sensitive to price changes. Inelastic means the product is not sensitive to price movements.
"Ed = \\frac{250 - 200} {P2 - 8} \u00d7\\frac{P2 + 8} {250+200} = 2,"
18P2 - 144 = P2 + 8,
17P2 = 152,
P2 = 8.94.
