good observation because elasticity and slope of a line are slightly different. This gives me an opportunity to elaborate too. Elasticity is the % change in Quantity divided by a % change in Price. Slope is just change in Quantity divided by Change in Price. Good luck in your classes too.

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain the formula for change in price and qty as well as to arrive to the Price Elasticity of Demand. I am in my Junior year of college and in Microeconomics, and I was stuck until I watched your tutorial. I really appreciate your time with the subject matter very much. Thank you!

Great observation! Typically, economics textbooks and economist drop the negative sign (sorry about that and that is very confusing) because it is "implied" all values are negative. That being said, your observation is the same when you drop the negative sign. Inelastic 0 to 1 Unit Elastic = 1 Elastic values greater than 1 I do mention this in the video (briefly). I should point this out and be more explicit about dropping the negative sign. Great observation!

I use a variety of different software including photoshop, illustrator, HTML5, Final Cut, GarageBand and a few other products. Each video takes me a long time to create. My rule of thumb is each minute of video takes about 12 hours to create, so a 7 minute video takes me about 84 hours of development time.

@wendysuck In the end the negative sign is removed for convenience and hopefully ease of understanding. The PED is always "negative" but often the sign is removed so we can easily compare PED at different levels. This makes it easier (hopefully) then if PED less than 1 it is inelastic and greater than 1 PED is elastic. It may be confusing if there were negative signs too.

That is a great observation! If quantity changed and price remained constant, then we have to conclude something other than price of the good cause the change. The math does not exactly make sense. Thanks for your observation.
@economicsfun
@economicsfun 11 жыл бұрын
All these numbers depend on the product we are looking at or examining. Some goods are very sensitive to changes in price like gasoline (petrol). A small drop in price causes everyone to run to the pumps and fill up their tanks. It is important to note that my numbers are hypothetical too. I am only trying to show you how to make the calculations. In real life (or in practice) you would not see such a smooth revenue curve. Hope this helps. Do ask for more clarification if you need it.

Jenny, Right or wrong, in economics the negative sign is often disregarded. The reason is that the slope of the line is negative and can be seen as such. Hope that makes sense. Not the best answer, but that is the way it is.

I would think want to calculate income elasticity of demand. It is calculated very similar, but you want to determine how an increase in income impacts demand. The formula is the %Change in Quantity / % Change in Income. OR (Q2 - Q1)/Q1 divided by (M2 - M1)/M1 where M = IncoMe. Make sense?
