Which of the following prices is most elastic? a. the price of dairy products b. the price of “scalper” tickets to the world series c. the price of a new mp3 player d. the price of insulin for diabetics

An elastic products prices are responsive to changes in demand. Generally, the necessity of the product is related to it's elasticity. For example, insulin is essential for diabetics, so the price is extremely inelastic—people will pay any amount because it is a life or death situation. The price of a new MP3 player can be inelastic, especially because results show that people want the newest thing, and will pay more if it works better than the previous model. Additionally, the price of "scalper" tickers to the World Series will increase by demand, but they will still sell regardless. The price of dairy products, however, is rather elastic; this is because when the price rises, people switch to a cheaper brand.  The difference between an inelastic and elastic product is that elastic products have substitutes, whereas inelastic products have no substitutes (or sometimes very few).

A. the price of dairy products

Answer:

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

explanation:

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.
