Elasticity:Demand:Beef:-0.7-0.61-0.4BeefDemand Elasticity is defined as the ratio of the percentage increase in demand for a particular product (or service) to the percentage increase in the price of that product (or service).

Example: If the price of a unit of bread increased from $1 to $1.1 leading to decrease in consumption from 5 units to 4.7 units, we have percentage change in demand,(4.7-5)/5=-6% and percentage change in cost ($1.1 -$1.0)/$1.0 = 10%, and then the demand elasticity is the ratio -6/10 = -0.3

Supply:Beef:0.230.63.24BeefSupply Elasticity represents how the production of a good (or service) changes with increase in price. It is the ratio of percentage increase in supply to the percentage increase in the price of that product (or service).

Example: If the average price of oil change went from $25 to $28 leading to a 10% increase in number of oil change specializing auto shops, then the supply elasticity is the ratio 0.1/(($28-$25)/$25) = 0.833

cumulative elasticity factor (CEF):Beef:0.250.50.89Derivation of the formula for cumulative elasticityCumulative Elasticity is the effect on the net supply, based on the supply and demand elasticities, when there is a shift in the original demand.

Example: If 100 people consume 25 kg of meat each every year, and 10 turn vegetarian, the decrease in original demand would be 250 kg. This is not the net decrease in supply, because the reduced demand leads to decrease in price, which increases consumption by the remaining 90, who will eat more than 25 kg now. The overall decrease would be the cumulative elasticity of the product times 250 kg.
