The coefficient of elasticity of supply of a commodity is 3. A seller supplies 20 units of this commodity at a price of 8rs per unit. How much quantity of this commodity will the seller supply if the price rises by 2rs per unit. |
Answer» Solution : PES `=(DeltaQ)/(DELTAP)xx(P)/(Q) 3=(DeltaQ)/(2)xx(8)/(20)` `DeltaQ=(120)/(8)=15` As PRICE increases,quantity suppliedalso increases as per law of SUPPLY NEW Quantity =Initial Quantity+DeltaQ =20+15=35` |
