Demand curve of a software development firm digisign is
qd= -16p^2 -4p + 250 .Carry out analysis of demand function and find out elasticity of demand Ed At p=25.
Draw pertinent conclusions .

qd(25) = -16*(25^2) - 4(25) + 250
qd(25) = -10000 - 100 + 250
qd(25) = -9850

So p = 25 and q = -9850

Ed = dp/dq
Ed = -13p -4

Elasticity of Demand is found at:
Ed = p/q * dp/dq
Ed = 25/-9850 * (-13(25) - 4)
Ed = 25/-9850 * -329
Ed = 0.835
