HEDONIC PRICING MODEL: A statistical model used to identify factors or influences on the price of good based on the notion that price is based on both intrinsic characteristic and external factors. The hedonic pricing model is most commonly used in the housing market in which the price of housing is based on the physical characteristics of the house (size, appearance, features) and the surrounding neighborhood (accessibility to schools and shopping, quality of other houses, availability of public services). Estimating hedonic prices makes it possible to identify the extent to which specific factors affect the price.

Elasticity Determinants

- Elasticity determinants affect the coefficient of elasticity.
- Availability of Substitutes:
- The elasticities of demand and supply are relatively greater for goods that have a large number of relatively close substitutes-in-consumption or substitutes-in-production.
- Time Period:
- The elasticities of demand and supply are relatively greater for goods over a longer period than a shorter period.
- Proportion of Budget:
- The elasticity of demand is greater for goods that take up a smaller proportion of a buyer's budget.

A person or country has an absolute advantage in production largely due to superior technology or greater technical efficiency. A related, but contrasting concept is comparative advantage. Both terms are perhaps most important to the study of international trade, but also provide insight into other exchanges.
