Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
If elasticity of demand is 0
A
perfectly inelastic demand
B
perfectly inelastic supply
C
perfectly elastic demand
D
perfectly elastic supply
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -If elasticity equals zero, demand is perfectly inelastic, which means that an increase in price does not affect the quantity required.

Detailed explanation-2: -If a good’s price elasticity is 0 (no amount of price change produces a change in demand), it is perfectly inelastic.

Detailed explanation-3: -When a good has an elasticity of zero it is called “perfectly” inelastic. This means that the supply and/or demand of the product will not change at all even as its price changes.

Detailed explanation-4: -E = 0: demand is perfectly inelastic, meaning that demand does not change at all when the price changes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Perfectly inelastic demand is an economic condition in which a change in the price of a product or a service has no impact on the quantity demanded or supplied because the elasticity of demand or supply is equal to zero.
