Below is the supply/demand, inverse supply/demand, and market equilibriums for a market. and after a tax imposed on sellers. After the tax, calculate CS, PS, TR, and DWL. Before tax: Inverse demand: P=-4Qd+250 Demand: Qd=(-1/4)P+62.5 Inverse supply: P=6Qs+20 Supply: Qs=(1/6)P-(10/3) p*=158; Q*=23 After tax: Inverse demand: P=-4Qd+250 Demand: Qd=(-1/4)P+62.5 Inverse supply P=6Qs+30 Supply: Qs=(1/6)(P-10)-(10/3) Pb*=162; Ps*=152; Q*=22

The table below illustrates the market for Internet services. Use a demand-supply graph to answer the following. Draw a graph of the market for internet services before the tax (only plot the supply and demand functions). Suppose the government imposes a $15 tax per month on the supply side of the market. Sketch the new supply function after the tax.
12. Effect of a tax on buyers and sellers The following graph shows the daily market for wine when the tax on sellers is set at $0 per bottle. Suppose the government institutes a tax of $23.20 per bottle, to be paid by the seller. (Hint: To see the impact of the tax, enter the value of the tax in the Tax on Sellers field and move the green line to the after-tax equilibrium by adjusting the value in the Quantity field. Then enter zero in the Tax on Sellers field. You should see a tax wedge between the price buyers pay and the price sellers receive.) Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly. 180 160 140 120 4 100 80 60 Demand 40 20 PRICE (Dollars per bottle) 200 0 0 Supply 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 QUANTITY (Bottles of wine) Graph Input Tool Market for Wine…
In the market for candy, researchers have estimated the following demand and supply curves. Demand: P= 8 - Q/100 Supply: P= (3Q)/700 If the government imposes an excise tax of $0.50 per unit. What is tax revenue out of this tax? (Remember that the tax does not change the demand and supply curves).

Doyle and Samphantharak (2008) find that when a 5% gas tax is implemented, prices consumers pay for gas increase by about 4%. What role does demand elasticity play in determining the size of this price change? That is, under what demand elasticity cases would the price change be closer to 5%, or closer to 0%? Illustrate and explain using supply-and-demand graph(s)..
Now assume the government raises the tax from $1.00 to $1.50. This causes sale to decline from 10,000 units to 5,000 units. a) calculate the price(tax) elasticity of demand. b) is it elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic? c) what happens to total tax revenue?

Draw a diagram where sellers have to pay a $X tax to the Government on each unit that they sell. Then this tax is decreased to $Y. Draw a demand and supply diagram showing this tax reduction causing an increase in Government taxation revenue. Please provide a written explanation for your diagram and discuss its policy implications. ( maximum word limit: 250 words)
