MEANING OF DEMAND
A DEMAND CURVE : is a graph which depict a the relationship between the quantity of the product which is demanded at that cost in the [ x - axis ] and the price of the that product in the [ y - axis ] .
In the following figure above, suppose that demand curve D1,
is the relevant demand curve. If the price of a soft drink rises,
then there is,
A) A shift in the demand curve leftward
B) A movement down along the demand curve D1
C) A movement up along the demand curve D1
D) no change in quantity demanded
E) A shift in the demand curve rightward
Price (dollars per soft drink) Quantity (soft drinks per year)
Figure: The Demand Curve Figure: The Demand Curve Price 3104 Quantity Use Figure: The Demand Curve. By the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand between $6 and $7 is approximately 1.86. 0.19. 1.00 5.40. If the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is greater than 1: percentage changes in the price will lead to equal percentage changes in the quantity demanded. small percentage changes in the price will lead to much larger percentage changes in the quantity...
Does a monopolistic competitor face a inelastic demand curve or an elastic demand curve, a unit elastic demand curve or perfectly elastic demand curve.
Answer the following questions about the kinked demand curve: a) How is the kinked demand curve formed? b) What are the marginal cost implications of the kinked demand curve? c) How is it different from the demand curve in the Cournot model?
When large changes in price lead to no changes in quantity demanded, demand is perfectlyGroup of answer choicesinelastic, and the demand curve will be vertical.inelastic, and the demand curve will be horizontal.elastic, and the demand curve will be vertical.elastic, and the demand curve will be horizontal.
Question 14 The monopolist's demand curve is: o identical to the market demand curve. identical to the marginal revenue curve. O a horizontal line at the market price. below the marginal revenue curve. a U-shaped curve.
(Figure: The Demand Curve for Oil) Use Figure: The Demand Curve
for Oil. The price elasticity of demand between $20 and $21, by the
midpoint method, is approximately:
0.21.
0.49.
4.9.
2.1.

2) Why is the firm’s demand curve flatter than the total market demand curve in monopolistic competition? Suppose a monopolistically competitive firm is making a profit in the short run. What will happen to its demand curve in long run equilibrium ? What could this firm do to affect what happens to its demand curve? Explain in detail.
Which of the following demand curves has the lowest price elasticity of demand? A demand curve that is horizontal. A demand curve that is nearly vertical (steeply downward sloping). A demand curve that is slightly upward sloping. A demand curve that is nearly horizontal (slightly downward sloping).
Define the demand curve. What is the difference between the demand curve and quantity demanded? Please explain thoroughly.
