Sally is on her college golf team and only uses Titleist golf balls. She states: "I don't care what the price is, I will only buy Titleists." Is this a believable assertion?


Probably not. While another golf ball might sell for $2, Sally is willing to pay $3 for what she considers a superior ball. But would she pay $10, $50, $100? It is doubtful that her demand for Titleist balls is perfectly inelastic. We must assume that college students face income constraints.
