I’m getting evaluated today at the community college. My lesson is going to be on elasticity, I feel like you just gave me a secret weapon. Can't wait to share it with my students!

Elasticity is a tough concept, and I always feel like supply elasticity is the toughest for students to understand. I hope this helps!

Eggs have historically been inelastic when priced at their old prices, but I have to imagine we're getting the inelastic region of their demand curve!
