Price elasticity of demand is the measure of the extent of change in market demandfor a good in response to a change in its price.

PED = % of Change in Demand / % of Change in Price

If the PED is equal to zero, the good is perfectly inelastic. A change in price willhave no influence on quantity demanded.
