Elasticity

Principles of Economics Assignments

Here are five values for different types of elasticity. (The numbers have been calculated for each
case/market using the elasticity methods from your textbook.) Assume that prices rose by 10% in the
calculations for the price elasticity of demand and also in the calculations for the cross price elasticity
of demand. Also assume that income rose by 10% for the income elasticity of demand calculations.

1. Price Elasticity of Demand is -0.5.
2. Cross Price Elasticity of Demand is -0.5.
3. Cross Price Elasticity of Demand is 0.8.
4. Income Elasticity of Demand is -2.
5. Income Elasticity of Demand is 1.

In a multi-paragraph essay (min of 2 pages, single-spaced) explain what each type of elasticity is trying to
measure and what these numbers predict in each case.

Develop a response that includes examples and evidence to support your ideas, and which clearly communicates
the required message to your audience. Organize your response in a clear and logical manner as appropriate
for the genre of writing.
