On a graph, show the effect of a per unit tax on BUYERS of cigarettes.  (This requires you to think about the shape of the demand curve for cigarettes.  You can assume a sort of neutral supply curve.  Indicate the change in price and quantity from the tax.  The consumer and producer surplus after the tax, the tax incidence on buyers and sellers and the deadweight loss.  Who pays more of this tax? [Note: In the book they talk about the effect of cigarette taxes on OTHER states.  That's not what I'm talking about here.  Just tell me about the market on which the tax is imposed.]
