Concepts

  • Elasticity Stack
    • Elasticity
    • Δ P
    • Δ TR
  • Revenue Maximization (MR=0)
  • Elasticity Ranges on Demand Curve
  • Elastic Range (MR is Positive)
    • Move Down Along Demand Curve
    • Price Decreases
    • Total Revenue Increases
  • Inelastic Range (MR is Negative)
    • Continue Moving Down Along Demand Curve
    • Price Continues to Decrease
    • Total Revenue Decreases
  • Unit Elastic Demand (MR=0)
    • Consumers are Exactly Responsive to a Change in Price
    • Price Increases by 10%
