Explanation
Price Elasticity of Supply Requires Quantity Data
Steps:
- Price elasticity of supply (PES) = (% change in quantity supplied) / (% change in price).
- Price rises from 4: % change = ((4-2)/2) × 100% = 100% (using initial price).
- No quantity supplied data is given for either price level.
- Without quantity change, PES cannot be computed.
Why B is correct:
- Not enough information to confirm; question lacks quantity supplied details needed for the PES formula.
Why the others are wrong:
- A: Insufficient data prevents calculation.
- C: Insufficient data prevents calculation.
- D: Insufficient data prevents calculation.
Final answer: Not enough information.
