प्रश्न
Assertion (A): Suppose that a 2 per cent drop in the price of chocolate causes a 2 per cent increase in quantity demanded. This case is termed unit elasticity.
Reason (R): In this example, Ed is exactly 1 (or unity). Ed = `2/2=1`
विकल्प

When the price of a commodity falls by 80%, the quantity demanded increases by 100%. Find out its price elasticity of demand.
Ed = `100/80 = 1.25`
State the formula for calculating the price elasticity of demand using the percentage method.
The price of a commodity falls from ₹15 to ₹10. As a result, demand rises from 100 units to 150 units, Use the expenditure method to find the price elasticity of demand.
