Income Elasticity of Demand Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the income elasticity demand of an object.
Ied = FD - ID / IF - II
- Where IED is the income elasticity of demand
- FD is the final demand
- ID is the initial demand
- IF is the final income
- II is the initial income
Income Elasticity of Demand Definition
Income elasticity of demand, also know as IED, is the financial term used to describe the change in income of a good or service with the change in demand of that good or service. In other words how income will increase or decrease with a change in demand.
