Hi David,

Try:
=IF(B14=0,"Perfectly inelastic Demand",IF(B14<1,"Inelastic",IF(B14=1,"Unit-elastic","Elastic")))
Note: Negative values not handled. If you need to treat negative & positive values the same way, use absolutes (i.e. change all the
'B14' references to 'ABS(B14)'). To treat negative values as 0s, change 'B14=0' to 'B14<=0'. to eliminate negative values
altogether, wrap the above in 'IF(B14<0,"", ... )'

Cheers
