Price Elasticity of Demand Calculator

Price Elasticity of Demand: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers price before and after (currency). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are.

Price Elasticity of Demand Calculator is a planned calculator in the business section of Super Calculator, covering pricing strategy.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: price before and after (currency) and quantity before and after (units).

Outputs: elasticity coefficient, elastic or inelastic classification and revenue impact (currency).

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Midpoint (arc) elasticity E = ((Q2 - Q1) / ((Q1 + Q2)/2)) / ((P2 - P1) / ((P1 + P2)/2)). The point elasticity form (dQ/dP)(P/Q) differs and gives an asymmetric result depending on direction of the price change, which is why the midpoint form is standard.
