land is perfectly inelastic. E=100000000000000000000, because no matter what the price change, there will be no change in quantity consumed.

Wait. What?

[/ QUOTE ]

<font color="#666666"> The supply of land is finite and non changing. Even</font> if price of land is one dollar, <font color="#666666">more cannot be produced.</font> Lots of people will want it, <font color="#666666">and there will be a land shortage, so price will eventually go up (this is why manhattan real estate prices are so high).</font>
If land is expensive, no one will want it, <font color="#666666">but the quantity of land does not change.</font>


[/ QUOTE ]

I do not think that word, "perfectly inelastic", means what you think it means.

If your results come out whacked, you probably have sample size problems. I know I did.

Boro,
When people talk about price elasticities they talk about how quantity demanded/supplied responds to changes in price. I realize my examples are kinda whack, as they do not reflect price CHANGES, which is what I meant to talk about. Whether P starts at one or 10000 doesnt really matter, what matters is how changes in consumption/production respond to price CHANGES.

Sorry I didnt make that clearer, its been awhile.

we were told if our data ends up being [censored] not to waste time finding an instrument or anything, but just to do a write up on why we think our data is [censored] and what we can draw from it

so far im coming back with R-squared values of around .65 so im not too unhappy - as soon as i add in another variable and maybe knock out some of my outliers it should go up even more
