Shift in Demand Curve
A demand curve shifts when a determinant other than prices changes. for example:
Income of the buyers.
Consumer trends and tastes.
Expectations of future price, supply, needs, etc.
The price of related goods
.
ELASTICITY OF DEMAND
Demand elasticity is a measure of how much the quantity demanded will change if another factor changes.
One example is the price elasticity of demand; this measures how the quantity
demanded changes with
price.
Elastic demand means that demand for a product is sensitive to price changes. For example, if the selling
price of a product is increased, there will be fewer units sold. If the selling price of a product decreases,
there will be an increase in the number of units sold.
The term inelastic demand means that the demand for a product is not sensitive to price.
