Enter a value for all fields

The Price Elasticity of Supply calculator computes the ratio of the percent change in the quantity supplied over the percent changes in the price of a good.  

INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the following:

• Percent Change in Quantity
• Percent Change in Price

Price Elasticity of Supply:  The calculator returns the elasticity as a real number.

The Math / Science

Price Elasticity of Supply is a ration that indicates how much a change in the supply is affected by the change in price.

The formula for the Price Elasticity of Supply is:

     PES = PCQ / PCP

where:

• PES is the Price Elasticity of Supply
• PCP is the Percent Change in Price
• PCQ is the Percent Change in Quantity
