The elasticity of demand refers to the sensitivity of a goods demand as compared to the fluctuation of other economic factors, such as price, income, etc. The law of demand explains that the relationship between Demand and Price is directly inverse. However, the demand for some goods are more receptive to a change in price than others.
To be a true Giffen good, the good's price must be the only thing that changes to produce a change in quantity demanded. Giffen goods should not be confused with Veblen goods: Veblen goods are products whose demand increases if their price increases because the price is seen as an indicator of quality or status.
Demand for a good is said to be elastic when the elasticity is greater than one. A good with an elasticity of −2 has elastic demand because quantity demanded falls twice as much as the price increase; an elasticity of −0.5 has inelastic demand because the change in quantity demanded change is half of the price increase.

Demand drafts entail a large potential for fraud.Banks report that demand draft fraud is becoming more common. [1] Under the current Federal Reserve Board guidelines the customer has a time frame of 90 days from the time the check was deposited to dispute the transactions.
Where the two goods are independent, or, as described in consumer theory, if a good is independent in demand then the demand of that good is independent of the quantity consumed of all other goods available to the consumer, the cross elasticity of demand will be zero i.e. if the price of one good changes, there will be no change in demand for ...

Just as the supply curve parallels the marginal cost curve, the demand curve parallels marginal utility, measured in ...
