Answer:

A. inelastic

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply = Percentage change in Quantity supplied / Percentage change in price

% change in Quantity supplied = (350.00-320.00) / 350.00

% change in Quantity supplied = 0.08571429

% change in Quantity supplied = 8.57%

Price elasticity of supply = 8.57/40

Price elasticity of supply = 0.21425

Conclusion: The price elasticity of supply is inelastic because the elasticity is below 1.
