Oregon Hikes Cigarette Tax by $2 Last November Oregon voters overwhelmingly approved higher taxes on cigarettes and a new tax on e-cigarettes. Effective January 1, 2021, the state tax on a pack of cigarettes jumped from $1.33 to $3.33, the sixth-highest state tax in the nation. That will bring the average retail price up to $8.33 a pack, almost a 32 percent increase. State officials are expecting a tax windfall of $135 million in 2021 from the higher taxes. That assumes Oregonians continue to buy cigarettes at the same rate. Economists warn, however, that smokers reduce cigarette purchases when prices go up. Typically, unit sales decline by 4 percent when cigarette prices go up by 10 percent. The drop in unit sales may be larger in Oregon, as residents will have the option of purchasing smokes from other states, Indian reservations, and online.

Suppose that the equilibrium quantity in the market for gadgets has been 85,000 per month. Then a tax of $6 per gadget is imposed on gadgets. As a result, the price paid by buyers increases by $4 and the after-tax price received (and kept) by sellers falls by $2. Given this tax imposition, the government is able to raise $481,740 per month in tax revenue. We can conclude that the imposition of the tax (x) has caused a deadweight loss by an amount more than $13,750 but less than $14,500 per month. (y) has reduced the equilibrium quantity of gadgets by more than 4,450 but less than 4,675 gadgets per month. (z) has reduced consumer surplus by more than $328,750 per month and has reduced producer surplus by more than $164,775 per month.
The negative income tax has been proposed as a means The negative income tax has been proposed as a means of increasing both the efficiency and the equity of Canada’s tax system (see Applying Economic Concepts 18-1 on page 465). The most basic NIT can be described by two variables: the guaranteed annual income and the marginal tax rate. Suppose the guaranteed annual income is $8000 and the marginal tax rate on every dollar earned is 35 percent. With this NIT, after-tax income is given by After-tax income = 8000 + (1 – 0.35) X (Earned income) a. On a scale diagram with after-tax income on the vertical axis and earned income on the horizontal axis, draw the NIT relationship between earned income and after-tax income. b. What is the level of income at which taxes paid on earned income exactly equal the guaranteed annual income? c. The average tax rate is equal to total net taxes paid divided by earned income. Provide an algebraic expression for the average tax…

Problem 6-9 Demand change effects on government revenue The market for Titanium has supply given by P = Q and demand given by P = 12 - Q. The government introduces a tax of €3/g. Yet, the market experiences growth in the demand for titanium because of new-found medical uses. The new demand curve is P= 13 - Q. Find the change in government tax revenue due to the increased demand for titanium. (Round your answer to one decimal place.) € million
Question 29 When a excise tax is placed on the seller of a good: a the buyer is likely to pay a higher price and the seller is likely to receive a lower price from the sale of the good once the tax is considered. b the buyer is likely to pay a higher price and the seller is likely to receive the original price from the sale of the good once the tax is considered. c the buyer is likely to pay the original price and the seller is likely to receive a lower price from the sale of the good once the tax is considered. d the seller is likely to receive a higher price from the sale and the buyer is likely to pay a lower price for the good once the tax is considered.
