Suppose for a particular good that when the price rises from $15 to $25 the quantity demanded of the good falls from 70,000 units to 50,000 units. using the midpoint method the price elasticity of demand is 0.33 0.67 1.50 3.00

The price elasticity of demand using the midpoint formula is -0.67.

The mid-point formula for calculating percentage changes is given by:

Percentage change in quantity = { ( Q₂ - Q₁) / [ (Q₁ + Q₂)/2 ] } × 100

Percentage change in quantity = {( 70000-50000) / [(50000 + 70000)/2 ]}×100

Percentage change in quantity = (20000/ 60000) × 100

Percentage change in quantity = 33.33%

Percentage change in price ={ ( P₂ - P₁) / [ (P₁ + P₂)/2 ] } × 100

Percentage change in price = {( 15-25) / [(25 + 15)/2 ]}×100

Percentage change in price = (-10/ 20) × 100

Percentage change in price = -50.00%

Price Elasticity of Demand = (% change in quantity) ÷ (% change in price)

Price Elasticity of Demand = 33.33/-50 = -0.67

hi there,

do u need ? ?

thx

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
