MEASURES THE RESPONSIVENESS OF SUPPLY TO A CHANGE IN PRICE.
Price Elasticity of Supply
DEF:- THE RATIO BETWEEN % CHANGE IN QUANTITY SUPPLIED TO THE % CHANGE
IN PRICE.

Price Elasticity of Supply
Percentage Change in Quantity Supplied
Percentage Change in PricePES =
Remember:Es = coefficient of price elasticityQS = Quantity SuppliedP = Price
PES =% ∆QS
% ∆P

•PEs > 1 supply is elastic
•PEs < 1 supply is inelastic
•PEs = 1 Unitary Elastic
•PEs= ∞ Totally Elastic
•PEs= 0 Totally In-Elastic

Problem #1
An individual used to raise 10 bags which sell on the market at a minimum of $8 each. For some reasons, the market price per bag reached $10. He decided to raise 20. Let us find out how elastic or responsive the production was to price.

∆Qs 1PES = = = 4 ∆ P 0.25
We conclude that the PEOS is 4 . So PEOS is used to see how responsive or
sensitive is supply of a good to change in price.
