  • A Reduce the cost of production
  • B Reduce the quantity supplied
  • C Increase the quantity supplied
  • D Lead to no change in the quantity supplied
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Elastic demand means a change in price would cause a change in the quantity demanded. In an elastic demand, a small reduction in price would increase the quantity demanded and a decrease in the quantity supplied. This is so because, suppliers will not be willing to supply much goods when the price for it is low.
