There are many possible ways to limit the number of cabs in a city. The most common method is an explicit quota using a medallion that is kept forever and can be resold. One alternative is to charge a high license fee each year, which is equivalent to the city’s issuing a medallion or license that lasts only a year. A third option is to charge a daily tax on taxicabs. Using figures, compare and contrast the equilibrium under each of these approaches. Discuss who wins and who loses from each plan, considering consumers, drivers, the city, and (if relevant) medallion owners.

High level of government involvement in business activity has deterred production in poorer economies such as Mozambique, Bolivia, Egypt and Vietnam, as compared to Canada and other industrially advanced economies in which bureacratic red tape is much lower. Taxes discourage investment and prevent an economy from growing.

Quantity Price Buyers Pay Price Sellers Receive (Bottles of wine) (Dollars per bottle) (Dollars per bottle) Before Tax After Tax Using the data you entered in 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. Tax Burden Elasticity (Dollars per bottle) Buyers Sellers The burden of the tax falls more heavily on the __elastic side of the market.
