Answer #1

Without tax, the equilibrium is determined by the intersection of demand and supply curve.

Equilibrium price $10 and quantity 10 units.

When government imposes tax of $4 on the seller, then supply curve will shift leftward. New equilibrium price will be $12 and equilibrium quantity will be 8 units.

Hence it can be said that if a $4 per-unit tax is imposed on the sellers of this good. Then 8 units of this good will be sold after the tax is imposed.
