उत्तर
Both (i) and (ii) are true
Explanation:
-
Statement (i) is true: If the price elasticity of the supply of a good is 0.8, it means that the supply is inelastic because the percentage change in quantity supplied is less than the percentage change in price.
-
Statement (ii) is true: If the quantity supplied of a commodity remains the same regardless of its price, the supply is said to be perfectly inelastic. This is represented by a vertical supply curve, indicating that price changes do not affect the quantity supplied.
