D) The price elasticity of supply is a measure of the slope of the supply curve.

E) The price elasticity of supply measures how responsive producers are to changes in the cost of producing a product.

 

2) The price elasticity of supply measures

A) the percentage change in supply from a percentage change in demand.

B) the extent to which the quantity supplied of a good changes when the price of a good changes, other things remaining the same.
