This tax is decreased to a $1 per-unit tax. Which of the statement is TRUE about the market equilibrium with the lower $1 tax. O Consumer surplus decreases because market price rises. O Tax revenues increase. O Tax revenues decrease.

o Suppose the Canadian government has decided to place an excise tax of $20 per tire on producers of automobile tires. Excise taxes are also called sales or commodity taxes. Previously, there was no excise tax on automobile tires. As a result of the excise tax, producers of tires, such as Bridgestone and Michelin, are going to alter their tire prices. The graph illustrates the demand and supply curves for automobile tires before the excise tax. Please shift the appropriate curve or curves on the graph to demonstrate the impact of the new tax.

Suppose that the government decided to subsidize bacon producers. Will this impact supply or demand? O This will impact both supply and demand causing the supply curve and demand curve to shift to the left. This will only impact supply, causing the supply curve to shift to the left. This will only impact supply, causing the supply curve to shift to the right. This will impact both supply and demand causing the supply curve and demand curve to shift to the right.
