Solution(By Examveda Team)
Income Elasticity of Demand (YED) is defined as the responsiveness of demand when a consumer's income changes. It is defined as the ratio of the change in quantity demand over the change in income. The higher the income elasticity, the more sensitive demand for a good is to changes in income.The capital that is consumed by an economy or a firm in the production process is known as

C. If two demand curves are linear and parallel to each other, then, at a particular price, the coefficient of elasticity would be different on different demand curves.
D. The price elasticity of demand is expressed in terms of relaive not absolute changes in Price and Quantity demanded.

B. Decrease
C. Remain the same
