Explanation:
Price Elasticity of a supply Es = (Percentage change in the quantity of supply) Qs/ (Percentage change in the price of the commodity) Ps.
Qs = 25 % since there is a change in the quanity of supply by 25 %
Ps = 50% since there is a change in the price of the quantity by 50 %
Thus, Es = 25/50 = 0.5.
Since, Es is less than 1 but not equal to 0 it is inelastic which is also the degree of price elasticity.
