Definición

  • Information Relationships between the change in the price of a commodity and the corresponding change in the quantity that is sold. If a small change in price is accompanied by a relatively large change in the quantity sold, demand is said to be elastic (responsive to price changes). But if a large change in the price is accompanied by a small change in the quantity sold, demand is said to be inelastic.
