Suppose in the market for cigarettes, the price elasticity of supply is 2.4 and the price elasticity of demand is −0.8. If an excise tax is imposed on sellers of cigarettes, then _____. a buyers and sellers will pay equal shares of the tax b buyers will pay a greater share of the tax than sellers will c buyers will pay the whole tax d sellers will pay a greater share of the tax than buyers will e sellers will pay the whole tax
Complete the following table by filling in the quantity sold, the price buyers pay, and the price sellers receive before and after the tax. Quantity (Bags of handbags) Price Buyers Pay (Dollars per bag) Price Sellers Receive (Dollars per bag) Before Tax After Tax Using your answers from the previous table, calculate the tax burden that falls on buyers and on sellers, respectively, and calculate the price elasticity of demand and supply over the relevant ranges using the midpoint method. Enter your results in the following table. Buyers Sellers Tax Burden (Dollars per bag) Elasticity The tax burden falls more heavily on the side of the market that is elastic.
