Suppose the original before-tax demand curve for boks is P = 100 -2Qd. Suppose further that supply is P = 5 + 3Qs. Now suppose a quantity tax of $5 per unit is imposed on consumers.
A) What is the before-tax equilibrium price and quantity?
B) What is the after-tax equilibrium quantity? What is the price received by producers? What is the price paid by consumers?
C) How much tax revenue is raised?
D) Calculate the excess burden created by the tax.

The demand curve for gasoline is given by P= 18 -0.01Q where Q is a gallon of gasoline. A per-unit tax of $2 is imposed on the consumers. After paying the tax, their remaining marginal willingness to pay is represented by [Select] The new price that sellers receive is (Select] compared to the original market price of gasoline, and the new price that consumers pay (with the tax) is [Select ] compared the original market price of gasoline.

Suppose the equation for the demand curve for some product X is P= 8 - 0.6Q and the supply curve is P = 2 + 0.4Q. What are the equilibrium price and quantity? Now suppose an excise tax is imposed on X such that the new supply equation is P = 4 + 0.4Q. How much tax revenue will this excise tax yield the government? Graph the curves, and label the area of the graph that represents the tax collection...
