1. Elasticity of demand for pharmaceuticals is - 0.44
Elasticity of demand for specialist visits = - 0.32
- By definition describe the elasticity of demand (elastic, inelastic, or unitary elastic) for pharmaceuticals.
- By definition describe the elasticity of demand (elastic, inelastic, or unitary elastic) for specialist visits.
- Which demand is more elastic?
- Which demand is more inelastic?
- Given the elasticities in number 1, which of the 2 goods (pharmaceuticals or specialist visits) will have a flatter demand curve?
- When Pfizer raised the price of Chantix by 20%, everything else equal how will this affect revenue from Chantix? Assume the pharmaceutical elasticity given in number 1 (no computation required).
Homework Answers
a. The elasticity of demand for pharmaceuticals is inelastic as its absolute value is less than 1, that is, 0.44 < 1.
b. The elasticity of demand for specialist visits is inelastic as its absolute value is less than 1, that is, 0.32 < 1.
c. The demand for pharmaceuticals is more elastic as 0.44 > 0.32.
d. The demand for specialist visits is more inelastic as 0.32 < 0.44.
Pharmaceuticals will have a flatter demand curve as its demand
is more elastic.
Revenue from Chantix will increase because the demand is inelastic,
so increasing the price will increase the revenue.

Price Elasticity of Demand: AWAKE Price Elasticity of Demand measurers how changed in a price affect the quantity of the product demanded. Specifically, it is the ratio of the percentage change in quantity demanded to the percentage change in price. In order to understand how to plan a successful pricing program, marketers must understand how elastic or inelastic the consumers are to changes in price. In other words, to what extent will a price increase or decrease result in changes...
