Can explain how to answer these questions?
1. Before the tax , the market should be in equilibrium the
demand curve D and the supply curve S1 intersect each other. The
equilibrium price is $5 and the quantity is 10 so the total revenue
equals
. When there is a tax it adds to the business cost of the nation,
and when the costs of production arise the firm will decrease the
production to compensate the increased cost so there will be a
decrease in the supply and the supply curve would shift to the left
as shown in the graph.
Ans: d). All of the above are correct.
2. The amount of tax is the vertical distance between the new and the old supply curve. This is shown in the below diagram.
Ans: d)$.
3). The burden of tax here borne by both supplier and the buyer, but it may not be an equal amount. The burden of the tax fall on the consumers and producers depending upon the respective elasticity of demand and the supply. If the supply is more elastic than the demand the buyers bear most of the tax burden and vice versa.
Ans: A. Sellers are required to send one dollar to the government per product and the buyers are required to send two dollars.
