PROBLEM #6 The equilibrium price of cars in Boston in an unregulated automobile market is $25,000 per car, and the equilibrium quantity is 20,000 cars per year. Assume that the elasticities of supply and demand are equal. a) Using our supply-and-demand framework, graph the market in its initial equilibrium. Graphpaper is readily available at http://www.printfreegraphpaper.com/. b) The government imposes a $6,000 tax on suppliers. Draw the post-tax supply curve, and calculate how much of the tax is borne by producers...

Price D 6 8 Quantity 8. Refer to the above graph. Assume the market for this product is in equilibrium at the intersection of D2 and S. The shift in supply from S to Sz is due to an excise tax imposed on the product.

Draw a graph with two demand curves – one that is fairly elastic (labeled De) and one that is fairly inelastic (labeled Di). Draw a supply curve and label it S. Suppose this market sees an increase in the price of this good due to the imposition of a tax. Draw the new supply curve and label it S2. Compare the impact in the market of the shift in supply between the elastic demand curve and the inelastic demand curve....
