One of the following would not to lead to a deadweight loss. Which one?
a. A tax imposed on sellers when demand is downward sloping and supply is perfectly elastic
b. A price ceiling that is set below the equilibrium price
c. A subsidy paid to sellers when both demand and supply are elastic, but not infinite
d. A tax imposed on sellers when demand is perfectly inelastic
e. All the above will result to a deadweight loss
All the given condition will result in a deadweight loss..
Deadweight loss is actually a type cost and it is being created by market inefficiency. It can due to multiple reasons and some are price ceiling, providing subsidy, minimum wages laws, living wages laws etc.
One of the following would not to lead to a deadweight loss. Which one? a. A...

11. What type of goods would you recommend that the government tax if it wants the tax to result in no deadweight loss? Group of answer choices Unit elastic good with a price elasticity of demand and supply as close to 1 as possible Inelastic goods with a price elasticity of demand and supply as close to zero as possible Inelastic goods with a price elasticity of demand and supply as close to infinity as possible Elastic goods with a...
(1) Briefly explain why deadweight loss exist when a tax is imposed. Why would deadweight loss be lower if the tax is imposed on a good with inelastic demand? [3 Points)

Please rank the follow curves as to how they would contribute to deadweight loss if a good that had this elasticity was taxed. Assume the supply curve has an elasticity equal to 1. Most deadweigh loss least deadweigh loss 1.a demand curve with price elastisity of demand equal to 100 2. a demand curve with price elastisity of demand equal to 0.4 3. a demand curve that is perfectly inelastic 4. a demand curve that is unit elastic
QUESTION 6 The deadweight loss associated with a per-unit tax will be small relative to the tax revenue collected if: supply and demand are both elastic. O A. supply and demand are both inelastic. OB. supply is elastic, demand is inelastic. OC demand is elastic, supply is inelastic. OD. QUESTION 7 Consider the following statements when answering this question 1. It is not possible to help consumers by simply shifting taxes from consumers paying them to producers paying them. II....
Which of the following statements is true? If the price of a good is lowered and total revenue decreases, demand is elastic. If the price of a good is raised and total revenue does not change, demand is perfectly elastic. If the price of a good is lowered and total revenue increases, demand is inelastic. If the price of a good is raised and total revenue increases, demand is inelastic. and relatively inelastic demand is represented by a demand curve...
