Figure: Tax Incidence
Reference: Ref 7-12
(Figure: Tax Incidence) Look at the figure Tax Incidence. All other
things unchanged, when a good or service is characterized by a
relatively inelastic supply, as shown in panel _____, a greater
share of the burden of an excise tax is borne by _____.
A; sellers
B; sellers
A; buyers
B; buyers
Ans) the correct option is B; sellers
Steeper the curve, more inelastic the curve is. In panel B the supply curve is inelastic and more tax burden will fall on producers.

Price D 6 8 Quantity 8. Refer to the above graph. Assume the market for this product is in equilibrium at the intersection of D2 and S. The shift in supply from S to Sz is due to an excise tax imposed on the product. The incidence of the tax is: $1 from the buyers and $3 from the sellers $3 from the buyers and $3 from the sellers $1 from the buyers and $1 from the sellers $4 from...

QUESTION #1 Refer to Figure 1. Suppose a $3 per-unit tax is imposed on the sellers of this good. How much is the burden of this tax on the buyers in this market? What price will buyers pay for the good after the tax is imposed? Explain clearly.QUESTION #2 Refer to Figure 1. Suppose a $3 per-unit tax is imposed on the sellers of this good. How much is the burden of this tax on the sellers in this market? What is...
7. Taxation - An algebraic approach Suppose the supply of a good is given by the equation 0= 360P – 360, and the demand for the good is given by the equation OP-840 - 120P. where quantity (Q) is measured in millions of units and price (P) is measured in dollars per unit. The government decides to levy an excise tax of $2.00 per unit on the good, to be paid by the seller. Calculate the value of each of...
7. Taxation An algebraic approach Suppose the supply of a good is given by the equation Q" = 48OP- 480, and the demand for the good is given by the equation QD = 960- 160P, where quantity (Q) is measured in millions of units and price (P) is measured in dollars per unit. The government decides to levy an excise tax of $1.00 per unit on the good, to be paid by the seller. Calculate the value of each of...
Panel (a) Price Panel (b) Supply Supply Demand Demand 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Quantity 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Quantity 6. In which of the panels in the figure do the buyers bear the greater tax incidence, and why is this? a) Panel(a), because the demand curve is relatively less elastic, meaning consumers are less willing to bear the burden of the tax. b) Panel (b), because the demand curve is relatively less...

The graph below shows the market for office rental space. A $400 per month excise tax is imposed on firms selling office space. D is the demand curve, S1 is the supply curve in the absence of the tax, and S2 represents the supply curve that includes the tax. The graph below shows the market for office rental space. A $400 per month excise tax is imposed on firms selling office space. D is the demand curve, S1 is the...
