Answer #1

11. Producers and consumers share the burden of taxation according to supply and demand elasticities

Reason: The entire burden of tax cannot be passed on to consumers. The burden depends on relative elasticities

12. $3037.50

Reason: At equilibrium, 15+2L = 150-L

This gives L = 45

At L = 0, Wd = 150 and Ws = 15
