Cross-price elast. of demand

% change in quantity good 1/ % change in price good 2

AMBIGUOUS CHANGES

When the shifts match (i.e. both increase) the quantity follows but price is ambiguous. When they differ the quantity is ambiguous but price follows the demand.

midpoint method

[(change in quantity)/(average quantity)]/[(change in price)/(average price)]

cross-price elasticity < 0
