Would you support a 30% increase in taxes on gasoline rather than a 30% decrease in the CAFÉ standard? Why or why not? (Be specific and justify).
It is a bad idea to decrease the CAFE(Corporate Average Fuel Economy) standard, against the idea of a increase in taxes on gasoline to curtail it's consumption.
CONCLUSION: I WOULD RATHER SUPPORT A 30% INCREASE IN TAXES, RATHER THAN A 30% DECREASE IN THE CAFE STANDARD.

Suppose that a 20% increase in the price of gasoline causes a 5% decrease in the consumption of gasoline and a 30% drop in the sales of SUVs. What can you say about elasticities?
Which would you rather have? • An increase in Sales of $1.00 with the same %-Sales cost structure • Same Sales level but decrease expenses by $1.00. Use a simple income statement to support your choice.
Suppose that a 20% increase in the price of gasoline causes a 5% decrease in the consumption of gasoline and a 30% drop in the sales of SUVs. What can you say about elasticities? 2. b) A 10% increase in the price of pizza causes a 10% drop in the quantity of both pizza and beer sold. Describe elasticities and the nature of the two products.

(C) If the confidence levels were 99.5% rather than 99.9% would
the margin of error be larger or smaller than the result in part
(a) ? Explain.
The margin of error would be ( larger or smaller ) , since ( an
increase or a decrease ) in the confidence level will ( decrease or
increase ) the critical value z a/2.

A change in taxes affects disposable income and then consumption rather than spending directly. e. All of the...
