4 0 to $ . 2 0 is the increase from three to four cups. If all other factors are unchanged, a change in price must result in a change in the quantity demanded or purchased. 2 T h e law of demand included the words "all other things being equal". T h e r e are many factors that determine a person's demand for a commodity, or that explain, for example, why the coffee drinker would buy four cups at a price of $ . 2 0 per cup instead of either three or five cups. These factors fall into three major groups: • the price of related commodities; • the consumer's income level; • the consumer's taste or preference for the commodity relative to other commodities.

T h e reverse was the case of complementary goods: an increase in the price of one led to a decrease in the quantity demanded of the other. 10 Eiasticity Ctianges Even When Siope is Constant Elasticity changes over the length of a linear demand curve (with constant slope = APIAQ) from a coefficient of zero at zero price to infinity at zero quantity. The elasticity is unitary at the price where quantity demanded, Q ^ , is one-half the quantity demanded at zero price. This relationship c a n now be measured by another application of the elasticity concept, namely cross elasticity of demand.

Perhaps it is less obvious that the demand for a commodity also depends on the prices of comple­ that are usually used along with the particular ments—commodities commodity. If the coffee drinker could not possibly take her coffee without cream and sugar, and if the supplier now charged $ . 2 5 for each of these, the demand curve for coffee would be to the left of and lower than the D curve shown in Figure 3 . 1 . An increase in the price of complements will decrease the demand for the good in question, while an increase in the price of substitutes will increase the demand for that good.
