Suppose that market supply and demand for Cola are linear and continuous. At competitive equilibrium, the price of Cola is $9.09, with 10 people each buying half a litre in quantity. The government subsidises the consumption of Cola by $2.7 per litre, and in doing so, leads the market to a new equilibrium price of $7.74 and quantity of 17 litres.What is the deadweight loss of this policy?O a. $9.09O b. $8.50O c. $32.40O d. $16.20 Type out the correct answer and give correct explanation of it within 40 50 minutes.
