Yes a tax leads to a dead weight loss in the market, A dead weight loss is a the value lost due to decrease in the goods traded due to external factors like tax, a tax will make a difference between the goods that the consumers are paying and the price that the producers are receiving, At a higher price the consumer buy less and at a lower price the supplier sells less, this decrease in the goods traded will lead to a deadweight loss will mean a deadweight loss. This wouldn't have occurred in case the market clearing equilibrium.

One of the following would not to lead to a deadweight loss. Which one? a. A tax imposed on sellers when demand is downward sloping and supply is perfectly elastic b. A price ceiling that is set below the equilibrium price c. A subsidy paid to sellers when both demand and supply are elastic, but not infinite d. A tax imposed on sellers when demand is perfectly inelastic e. All the above will result to a deadweight loss
