Excise tax in a tax on the manufactured goods levied at the time of good manufacturing, An excise tax will lead to an increase in the price of the goods and decrease the quantity of the goods produced, this will shift the aggregate supply curve to the left and the new equilibrium will be at a higher price and lower output, if this tax is passed on to the consumer they have to pay a higher tax and that will lead to a lower demand.
An example of excise tax is taxes on cars that decrease the quantity of cars brought and sold by increasing the price, this is done to control the pollution in the market.

We understand that an excise tax will result in a difference between the price the consumers pay and the (net) price the firm keeps for each unit. Often, this results in a “disruption” in the market as equilibrium output decreased. For this example, suppose we look at the market for land and let’s assume that the supply of land is fixed (I realize that some countries have “reclaimed land from the sea,” but lets ignore those) and the supply curve...

4. Excise tax cause deadweight loss when it: All (a,b,c) are true Increases the quantity of the good supplied and demanded in the market Creates an incentive for mutually beneficial exchanges to take place. Raises the price of the good being taxed
Assume that the market for a good is in equilibrium at a price of $20 and a quantity of 100 units. After the government imposes a $5 per-unit excise tax on the good, the price that buyers pay for the good increases by $3. Which of the following are possible values for the government tax revenue and deadweight loss in the market
