supply function is Q= -100+10P . Where price = 15 . find elasticity by point method . |

Answer» Given supply function is given as: Q = -100 + 10P => P = (Q + 100)/10 = Q/10 + 100/10 = Q/10 + 10. Slope of supply = 1/10. When price (P) = 15, Q = -100 + 10(15) = -100 + 150 = 50. Elasticity of supply = (1/Slope of supply) x P/Q = {1/(1/10)} x 15/50 = 10 x 15/50 = 150/50 = 3. |
