Answer:

Answer

Initial price (P) =Rs.10

Rise in price by 20 per cent = 10×

100

=Rs. 2

New price (P

) Rs.10+Rs.2=Rs.12

Given, P=Rs.10; P

=Rs.12;

△P=P

Initial price (P) =Rs.10

Rise in price by 20 per cent = 10× 20/100

=Rs. 2

New price (P 1 ) Rs.10+Rs.2=Rs.12

Given, P=Rs.10; P 1 =Rs.12;

P=P 1−P=Rs.12−Rs.10=Rs.2

Q=Q1=Q=(125-150) units =(-)25 unit s

price elasticity of demand (Ed)

(-)p/q x q/p

=(-)10/150 x -25/2 =0.83

price elasticity of demand=0.83
