What is the price elasticity of supply formula?
The formula for calculating price elasticity of supply is as follows
Price elasticity of supply, eS = Percentage change in quantity supplied / Percentage change in price
eS = ∆Q/Q × 100 / ∆P/P × 100
= ∆Q/Q × P/∆P
Where ∆Q is the change in the quantity of the commodity supplied to the market place as market cost price changes by ∆P.
