P> 1, p increases and tr decreases (vice-versa) -------------> demand is elastic. P= 1, p increases (decreases) and tr remains constant elastic. P< 1, p increases and tr increases (vice-versa) -------------> demand is inelastic. At points with a low price & a high quantity, demand is inelastic. At points with a high price & a low quantity, demand is elastic. A measure of how much qd of a good responds to a change in consumer"s income.
