Suppose the price of product X is reduced from $1.75 to $1.35 and, as a result, the quantity of X demanded increases from 2,000 to 2,400. Using the arc elasticity if demand (or midpoint) method, the own price elasticity of demand for X in the given price range is
- -1.423.
- -0.705.
- -0.563.
- -0.875.
