Problems and Applications Q7
Suppose that your demand schedule for pizza is as follows:
Price |
Quantity of Pizzas Demanded |
Quantity of Pizzas Demanded |
---|---|---|
(Dollars) |
(Income = $20,000) |

10 | 32 | 45 |
12 | 24 | 30 |
14 | 16 | 20 |
16 | 8 | 12 |
Using the midpoint method, your price elasticity of demand as the price of pizzas increases from $14 to $16 is if your income is $20,000 and if your income is $24,000.
If the price of a pizza is $10, your income elasticity of demand is as your income increases from $20,000 to $24,000. However, if the price of a pizza is $14, your income elasticity is .
