Price elasticity of demand
Elasticity is the ratio of rates of change. Price elasticity of demand refers to the rate of change in demand relative to the rate of change in price.

Because demand generally decreases when prices rise, a negative sign is added to the formula so that the result is positive. Typically, if the absolute value of price elasticity exceeds 1, demand is said to be elastic; if it is less than 1, it is called inelastic.
