उत्तर
If the price elsaticity of supply is 1 and the percentage change in price is 10, then the percentage change in quatity supplied should be 10.
Explanation:
The price elasticity of supply (Es) is calculated as:
Es = `("Percentage change in quantity supplied")/("Percentage change in price")`
1 = `("Percentage change in quantity supplied")/(10%`
Therefore, the percentage change in quantity supplied must also be 10% for the elasticity to equal 1.
