ELASTICITY ALTERNATIVES, SUPPLY: The price elasticity of supply can fall into one of five categories--perfectly elastic, relatively elastic, unit elastic, relatively inelastic, and perfectly inelastic--based on the coefficient of elasticity. This table summarizes the five alternatives. These five elasticity alternatives form a continuum ranging from perfectly elastic at one end to perfectly inelastic at the other. The "middle" of this continuum is occupied by unit elastic. in that the "unit" and the two "perfectly" are really borders, boundaries, and endpoints, most of the real world action involving the price elasticity of supply takes place in the two "relatively" alternatives--relatively elastic and relatively inelastic.

Lesson 21: Factor Demand | Unit 4: Determinants

- The ceteris paribus determinants of factor demand.
- Factor demand determinants are three ceteris paribus items that affect factor demand, but which are assumed constant when a factor demand curve is constructed. Changes in any one causes a shift of the factor demand curve.
- What are the factor demand determinants?
- Product Demand
- Factor Productivity
- Other Prices
- How do they affect the factor demand curve?
The factor demand curve, like any other curve, can shift in one of two ways: - An increase in factor demand is seen as a rightward shift of the factor demand curve.
- A decease in factor demand is seen as a leftward shift of the factor demand curve.

EASY MONEY A general condition of the economy in which money is relatively abundant and plentiful. In modern times, this condition arises when the monetary authority (Federal Reserve System) undertakes expansionary monetary policy. With easy money, interest rates are generally lower, but inflation tends to creep higher. The alternative to easy money is tight money.
