See Hint (1 point) Part 1 The supply of smart watches is linear and upward sloping, and the demand for smart watches is linear and downward sloping. Suppose the government imposes a per-unit tax in the market for smart watches. In this market, the tax decreases consumer surplus by $7,000.00, and it decreases producer surplus by $16,800.00. The tax decreased the equilibrium quantity of the good by 1,400.00 smart watches, and it generated a deadweight loss of $9,800.00. The tax...

suppose that the market for product x is characterized by a typical, downward-sloping, linear demand curve and a typical , upward-sloping, linear supply curve. suppose the price of supply is 0.7. will the dead weight loss form a $3 tax per unit be smaller if the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is 0.6 or if the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is 1.5?

Suppose there is a linear downward-sloping demand curve and a linear upward-sloping supply curve for some good. The price of a substitute good decreases and the price of an input to the production process also decreases. Both changes occur simultaneously. Graph the original demand and supply curves, and then graph new curves after the substitute good and input prices decrease. How will the equilibrium price and quantity change after the substitute and input prices decrease? Explain your answer in English...

Part 1 (1 point) D See Hint The supply of smart watches is linear and upward sloping, and the demand for smart watches is linear and downward sloping. Suppose the government imposes a tax of $3.00 per unit in the market for smart watches. In this market, the tax decreases consumer surplus by $1,500.00, and it decreases producer surplus by $3,000.00. The tax generates tax revenue of $3,000.00. The tax decreased the equilibrium quantity of the good by smart watches....

Consider a market free of government intervention and having a downward sloping demand curve and an upward sloping supply curve intersecting at some price P0. Write a short explanation of why any price higher than P0cannot be a free market equilibrium. Write a shortexplanation of why any price lower than P0cannot be a free market equilibrium. Now decrease supply a great deal and decrease demand until the curves no longer intersect (that is, the curves meet the vertical axis without...
