  • Quantity Effect
    Change in income resulting from selling more or fewer units due to a price change, impacting overall sales volume.
  • Elasticity

  • Inelastic Demand
    Situation where revenue rises as price increases, indicating buyers are not highly responsive to price changes.
  • Elastic Demand
    Situation where revenue falls as price increases, showing buyers are sensitive to price changes.
  • Unit Elasticity
    Condition where revenue remains unchanged when price changes, indicating proportional response in quantity demanded.
  • Demand Curve
    Graphical representation showing the relationship between price and quantity demanded at various price points.
  • Revenue Maximization
    Objective of finding the price and quantity combination that yields the highest possible income from sales.
  • Graphical Analysis
    Visual method for examining how changes in price and quantity affect total income, often using rectangles on a graph.
  • Optimal Price
