Price Elasticity of Demand

How much sales change with a change in price.

Formula

Elasticity = % change in demand / % change in price

A measure of how sensitive buyers are to price changes.

Detailed Explanation

If demand is elastic, a small discount will lead to explosive sales growth. If it is inelastic, the discount will simply eat into the margin without increasing volume.
