Consider that the market for modified electronic cigarettes, mod e-cigs, is described by the following demand and supply equations: Qo 448 3.5P and Qs 2.5P 80, where P is the price in dollars for one mod e-cig, and Qo and Qs measure the quantity of mod e-cigs per quarter. The market is currently in equilibrium. (Question 5 of 6) Concerned about the appeal of mod e-cigs among teenagers, and the potential long lasting health problems they may incur from using these devices, the local government decides to implement an excise tax of $4.80 per unit of mod e-cig traded. After its implementation, with no additional external factors, the market adjusts. Given the current market environment, what is the total surplus in the market? (report your answer at 2 decimal places).
