Understand that cross-price elasticity of demand measures how the quantity demanded of one good responds to changes in the price of a different good.
Recall the formula for cross-price elasticity of demand: \(\text{Cross-price elasticity} = \frac{\% \text{ change in quantity demanded of Good A}}{\% \text{ change in price of Good B}}\).
Note that this elasticity helps determine whether two goods are substitutes or complements: a positive value indicates substitutes, while a negative value indicates complements.
Distinguish cross-price elasticity from own-price elasticity, which measures responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in the good's own price, and from income elasticity, which relates to changes in consumer income.
Summarize that cross-price elasticity focuses on the relationship between two different goods, specifically how the price change of one affects the demand for the other.
