1.If demand is inelastic, when price drops the total expenditure by buyers decreases. In case of inelastic demand the the value of price elasticity of demand is lower than one (Ed<1). It means that if prices decreases by 50% then in response to the price changes the quantity demanded increase by lower than 50%. Due to which when price drops the total expenditue decreases. In addition, elasticity measures the degree of responsiveness of demand to change in prices of the commodity. So, inelastic means quantity demanded doesn't change much if prices changes.
