KEY TERMINOLOGIES UTILITY, PRICE ELASTICITY, AND DEMAND<\/p>\n
Utility means a total satisfaction received from consuming a good or service. Generally, consumer\u2019s utility satisfaction is not easy to measure. Nonetheless, we can determine it indirectly with consumer behavior theories, which assume that consumers will strive to maximize their utility.<\/p>\n
Price elasticity is a measure of the relationship between a change in the quantity demanded of a particular good and a change in its price, with all other factors held constant. Mathematically this is presented as:-<\/p>\n
Price Elasticity of Demand = proportionate change in quantity demanded —————————————————————— proportionate change in price<\/p>\n
Demand refers to how much quantity of a product or service is desired by buyers or the willingness to go out and buy a certain product. The law of demand states that, if all other factors remain constant, the higher the price of a good, the lesser the quantity demanded and vice versa. This is well supported by the diagram below<\/p>\n

Market equilibrium is situation in which the supply of an item is exactly equal to its demand. There is no surplus or shortage in the market. Price tends to remain stable in this situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
