If the supply curve is a straight line passing through the origin, then the price elasticity of supply will be / यदि आपूर्ति वक्र मूल बिंदु से गुजरने वाली एक सीधी रेखा है, तो आपूर्ति की कीमत लोच होगी
(1) less than unity / एकता से कम
(2) infinitely large / असीम रूप से बड़ा
(3) greater than unity / एकता से बड़ा
(4) equal to unity / एकता के बराबर
(SSC GL Tier-I Exam. 26.10.2014)
Answer / उत्तर : –
(4) equal to unity / एकता के बराबर
Explanation / व्याख्यात्मक विवरण :-
Any straight line supply curve passing through the origin has an elasticity of supply equal to 1.
Elasticity Description Effect on quantity supply of 1% increase in price
Zero Perfectly inelastic
(vertical straight line)
Between 0 and 1 In elastic Increased by and 1 less than 1%
1 Unitary elastic (Increased by exactly 1%
Greater than 1 Elastic Increased by more than 1%
Infinity Perfectly elastic Infinite increase
(horizontal straight line)
