FACTORS AFFECTING ELASTICITY OF SUPPLY
![Page 4: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Time has a greater influence on elasticity of supply than on demand. Generally supply tends to be inelastic in the short run because time available to organize and adjust supply to demand is insufficient. Supply would be more elastic in the long run.
TIME PERIOD

When factors of production are available in plenty and freely mobile from one occupation to another, supply tends to be elastic and vice versa.
AVAILABILITY AND MOBILITY OF FACTORS OF PRODUCTION
![Page 6: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Modern methods of production expand output and hence supply tends to be elastic. Old methods reduce output and supply tends to be inelastic.
TECHNOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENTS
![Page 7: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
If cost of production rise rapidly as output expands, then there will not be much incentive to increase output as the extra benefit will be choked off by increase in cost. Hence supply tends to be inelastic and vice versa
COST OF PRODUCTION
![Page 8: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
If the seller is selling his product in different markets, supply tends to be elastic in any one of the market because, a fall in the price in one market will induce him to sell in another market. Again, if he is producing several types of goods and can switch over easily from one to another, then each of his products will be elastic in supply.
KINDS AND NATURE OF MARKETS
![Page 9: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Political conditions may disrupt production of a product. In that case, supply tends to become inelastic.
POLITICAL CONDITIONS

Supply tends to become more elastic if there are more sellers freely selling their products and vice versa.
NUMBER OF SELLERS
![Page 11: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A firm can charge a higher price for its products, if prices of other products are higher and vice versa.
PRICES OF RELATED GOODS
![Page 12: EEFA - FACTORS AFFECTING ELESTICITY OF SUPPLY - FINAL YEAR CS/IT - SRI SAIRAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - DR,K,BARANIDHARAN](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062300/555a2fc2d8b42a900d8b4f15/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
If the seller is happy with small output, supply tends to be inelastic and vice versa.
GOALS OF THE FIRM
