Consider the demand curve above. If area 0ABC is smaller than area 0DEF, we may conclude that demand in this range is: A. inelastic B. elastic C. unit-elastic 11. The elasticity of demand for a product is likely to be greater: A. if the product is a necessity, rather than a luxury good. B. the greater the amount of time over which buyers adjust to a price change. C. the smaller the proportion of one's income spent on the product. D. the smaller the number of substitute products available. The elasticity of supply for a product will be 2.0 if: A. A 1 percent decrease in the price causes a 0.2 percent decrease in quantity supplied B. A 2 percent decrease in price causes a 1 percent decrease in quantity supplied C. A 1 percent decrease in price causes a 2 percent decrease in quantity supplied D. A 2 percent decrease in price causes a 2 percent decrease in quantity supplied

When the price of corn dogs is $0.50, 10,000 corn dogs are demanded. When the price of corn dogs is $1.20, 5,000 are demanded. What is the price elasticity of demand for corn dogs? A) -1.40 B) -0.40 C) -1.20 D) -0.81 The cross-price elasticity of demand between goods X and Y is greater than zero if X and Y are substitutes. It is the percentage change in the price of Y divided by the percentage change in the quantity of X demanded. It measures the responsiveness of the quantity of X demanded to changes in the price of Y. The correct answer is "both a and c" or "all of the above". If the quantity of gidgets demanded increases when the price of gadgets increases, gidgets are normal goods, while gadgets are inferior goods. Demand is more elastic in the short run than in the long run because consumers have less time to adapt to a price change in the short run than in the long run. The sample regression line shows the actual (or true) relation between the dependent and independent variables. It is estimated by the population regression line. It connects the data points in a sample. It maximizes the sum of the squared differences between the data points in a sample and the sample regression line. It is used to estimate the population regression line.
