Concept Introduction

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.

Complementary Goods: A complementary good is that good which is usually used in relation to another good. The cross elasticity of complementary goods is negative, implying that when there is an increase in the price of one good, the demand for another good decreases.

Substitute Goods: A substitute good is that good which can be used in place of another good. The cross elasticity of substitute goods is positive, implying that when there is an increase in the price of one good, the demand for another good increases.
