ACCESSIBILITY: The location of economic activity (especially in terms of land) relative to other activities. As real estate agents are prone to say, "The three most important factors in real estate are 'location, location, location.'" Accessibility determines how easy or difficult (read this as costly) it is to allocate good, services, and resources. Transportation is a key factor in accessibility. Efficient, low cost transportation systems improve accessibility.

Doing The Numbers: Midpoint
|
|
|
- Our task is to calculate the price elasticity of demand using the midpoint formula.
midpoint
elasticity | = | (Q2 - Q1)
(Q2 + Q1)/2 | ÷ | (P2 - P1)
(P2 + P1)/2 |
- The values for this formula are P1 = $2.49, Q1 = 5,447 tacos, P2 = $1.99, Q2 = 6,608 tacos.
midpoint
elasticity | = | 0.19 ÷ - 0.22 | = | - 0.86 |
- This value - 0.86 indicates that the a one percent decline in the price of Tacos results in a 0.86 percent increase in quantity demanded.
