Output and input levels always tend to an equilibrium point it the long run, meaning they are inelastic in the long run.

Elasticity refers to how much supply and/or demand changes with changes in pricing. The more elastic, the more change there is.

In the short-term, output and and supply can change dramatically, but in the long run things tend back to the middle (equilibrium).
