Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge wine producers a tax. Before the tax, 30,000 bottles of wine were sold every week at a price of $6 per bottle. After the tax, 25,000 bottles of wine are sold every week; consumers pay $8 per bottle, and producers receive $5 per bottle (after paying the tax). The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $ per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $ per bottle.
