FACTOR DEMAND ELASTICITY: The elasticity of a factor demand curve is affected by four things: (1) the price elasticity of demand for the good produced, (2) the production function technology and elasticity of marginal physical product, (3) the ease of factor substitutability, and (4) the share of the factor's cost relative to total cost. Changes in any of these four items can cause the price elasticity of factor demand to change. In other words, the quantity of factor services demanded will become more or less sensitive to changes in the factor price.
