Draw the supply curve for a good whose price elasticity of supply is equal to zero. Be sure to label both axes.

What will be an ideal response?




The supply curve in the graph is a vertical line, indicating that the quantity of the good supplied will not change no matter what happens to its price. In terms of the calculation of the price elasticity of supply, the change in quantity is zero and so therefore is the calculated value of the price elasticity.
