Concept Introduction:

Price Elasticity of Demand: Price elasticity of demand stands for the change in the quantity demanded due to the change in the price of a good or service. If a small change in price causes a large change in quantity, then the good or service is said to be elastic. If a change in price causes a little or no change in quantity, then the good or service is said to be inelastic.

Cross Elasticity of Demand: Cross elasticity of demand stands for the change in the quantity demanded of one product due to the change in price of another product.
