The measure of responsiveness of the demand for Tea towards the change in the price of Coffee in the market is an example of

A.

Direct Demand

B.

Cross Elasticity of Demand

C.

Composite Demand

D.

Indirect Demand

Correct option is B

The correct answer is: (B) Cross Elasticity of Demand
Explanation:
Cross Elasticity of Demand measures how the demand for one good (Tea) responds to changes in the price of a related good (Coffee). If Coffee's price rises, people might substitute it with Tea, leading to a change in Tea's demand.
Information Booster:
Cross Elasticity of Demand is positive for substitute goods (like Tea and Coffee) and negative for complementary goods (like Tea and Sugar).
Additional Knowledge:
  • Direct Demand: Refers to the demand for goods directly consumed, such as food or clothing.
  • Composite Demand: Occurs when a commodity is demanded for multiple uses, like milk for drinking and making curd.
  • Indirect Demand: Refers to the demand for factors of production used to produce goods, such as the demand for steel in the automobile industry.
