Consider the market for commercial fans. The following graph shows the demand and supply for commercial fans before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of commercial fans in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. Suppose the government imposes an excise tax on commercial fans. The black line on the following graph shows the tax wedge created by a tax of $50 per fan. First, use the tan quadrilateral (dash symbols) to shade the area representing tax revenue. Next, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus after the tax. Then, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer…
Consider the market for mountain bikes. The following graph shows the demand and supply for mountain bikes before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of mountain bikes in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. (screen shot 1) Suppose the government imposes an excise tax on mountain bikes. The black line on the following graph shows the tax wedge created by a tax of $80 per bike. First, use the tan quadrilateral (dash symbols) to shade the area representing tax revenue.

Canada's dairy industry is a rich, closed club If you want to be a dairy farmer, you buy a plot of land and some cows and start to sell your milk. Not in Canada. There, farmers must buy a quota to produce a set amount of milk. The situation is similar in the markets for chicken and eggs. Source: The Globe and Mail, June 25, 2015 Draw a graph to illustrate the Canadian market for milk. With a production quota, show the quantity of milk produced, the price, consumer surplus, producer surplus, and the deadweight loss created. The graph shows the demand curve and supply curve in the Canadian milk market. Draw a line to indicate the production quota if the production quota is 250 million gallons a year. Label it. Draw a point to show the quantity produced and the price paid by consumers. Draw shapes to show the consumer surplus, the producer surplus, and the deadweight loss created.

Attached is a graph diagram depicting the market for soft drinks. If an excise tax equal to $1 per liter is levied on soft drink sellers, please answer the following questions: a. The new equilibrium quantity of soft drinks bought and sold would be ___________ million liters. b. The new equilibrium price paid by buyers of soft drinks would be $__________ per liter. c. The new equilibrium price received by sellers (after-tax) would be $__________ per liter.
Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola producers a tax. Before the tax, 15 million cases of cola were sold every month at a price of $7 per case. After the tax, 9 million cases of cola are sold every month; consumers pay $10 per case, and producers receive $4 per case (after paying the tax). A. The amount of the tax on a case of cola is ___ per case B. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is ___ per case C. and the burden that falls on producers is ___ per case True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been the same as if the tax had been levied on consumers.
The accompanying graph depicts a hypothetical market for salt. Suppose that an excise or commodity tax is levied on consumers in an attempt to curb blood pressure problems. Show the effect of the tax by shifting the appropriate curve(s). Macmillan Learning Who has the larger tax burden? Consumers (buyers) Producers (suppliers) The tax burdens are equal Why is the tax burden as you described in in the question above? Consumers are the ones paying the tax. Demand is less elastic than supply. Both supply and demand are perfectly elastic. Supply is less elastic than demand. Demand is more elastic than supply.

The following graph shows the weekly market for craft beer in some hypothetical economy. Suppose the government levies a tax of $11.60 per case. The tax places a wedge between the price buyers pay and the price sellers receive. PRICE(Dollars per case) 50 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 0 Tax Wedge 0 10 20 30 Before Tax After Tax Buyers Sellers 40 SO 60 QUANTITY (Cases of craft beer) Demand 70 80 90 100 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 Price Buyers Pay (Cases of craft beer) (Dollars per case) Price Sellers Receive (Dollars per case) Supply Tax Burden (Dollars per case) 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. Elasticity ? The tax burden falls more heavily…
Suppose a local government votes to impose an excise tax of $0.90 per bottle on the sales of bottled water. (Assume that all bottles are identical and residents cannot shop elsewhere.) Before the tax the equilibrium price and quantity are $1.20 and 2100 bottles per day. After the tax is imposed, market equilibrium adjusts to a price of $2.00 and quantity of 1400 bottles per day. How much revenue from the tax does the local government collect each day?
