Doyle and Samphantharak (2008) find that when a 5% gas tax is implemented, prices consumers pay for gas increase by about 4%. What role does demand elasticity play in determining the size of this price change? That is, under what demand elasticity cases would the price change be closer to 5%, or closer to 0%? Illustrate and explain using supply-and-demand graph(s)..
Question 38 Please refer to the description of a tax on a market, represented by the graphic What is the price (including tax) that the buyer pays after the tax is imposed?
Which of the following statements is correct regarding a tax on a good and the resulting deadweight loss? The greater are the price elasticities of supply and demand, the greater is the deadweight loss. The greater is the price elasticity of supply and the smaller is the price elasticity of demand, the greater is the deadweight loss. The smaller are the decreases in quantity demanded and quantity supplied, the greater the deadweight loss. The smaller is the wedge between the effective price to sellers and the effective price to buyers, the greater is the deadweight loss.

Question 29 When a excise tax is placed on the seller of a good: a the buyer is likely to pay a higher price and the seller is likely to receive a lower price from the sale of the good once the tax is considered. b the buyer is likely to pay a higher price and the seller is likely to receive the original price from the sale of the good once the tax is considered. c the buyer is likely to pay the original price and the seller is likely to receive a lower price from the sale of the good once the tax is considered. d the seller is likely to receive a higher price from the sale and the buyer is likely to pay a lower price for the good once the tax is considered.
