Answer:
Supply Inelastic: Demand shift will have more effect on price than on quantity
Step-by-step explanation:
Demand and supply reflect buyers & sellers - buying & selling tendencies.
Demand curve & supply curve are downward sloping & upward sloping respectively (∵law of demand , law of supply) & EQUILIBRIUM is where Demand = Supply & Demand, Supply curves intersect.
Elasticity is demand / supply responsiveness to price change. Inelastic Supply doesn't respond to price. It has a vertical curve parallel to y axis (unlike usual upward sloping curve).
Demand change shifts downward sloping demand curve - 1. Rightwards if Increase in Demand, 2. Leftwards if Decrease in Demand. 1st case (↑Dd) with inelastic supply leads to increase in price & no change in quantity, at new equilibrium. 2nd case (↓Dd) with inelastic supply leads to decrease in price & no change in quantity, at new equilibrium.
So, Change in Demand with Inelastic Supply changes only Equilibrium Price & not Equilibrium Quantity.
