Suppose that the demand and supply functions for a good are given as follows: Demand: Q = 720-8P Supply: Q=-160+3P Suppose now that government imposes $22 tax per unit of output on sellers. What is the tax revenue for the government at the equilibrium? 880 484 1760 704
Question 8 Consider the following supply and demand functions in a market: p=12-2Q p=2Q Suppose the government imposes a tax rate t*=4 on demand. Compute the total economic tax burden (incidence) on producers (after tax t* is imposed). (Enter your answer to one integer. For "8", you would write 8).
Suppose that a lumber-producing firm had a demand for the ability to burn sawdust given by: Q = 90- P. Where Q is amount of sawdust burned when the firm has to pay price (P) per unit of sawdust burned. Calculate the quantity of sawdust burned if there is a per unit tax of $26 per unit of sawdust burned. (Do not include a $ sign in your response. Round to the nearest 2 decimal places if necessary.) Answer: Check
Algebraically, solve for the after tax equilibrium price and quantity in the corn market, if the government collects a specific tax of t=$2.40 from customers. The before-tax linear demand function for U.S. corn is given as Q=15.6-0.5p and the original supply curve is given as Q=9.6+0.25p. Please show with a diagram.
Consider the supply and demand functions graphed below. Price 100 75 70 60 10 56 Supply Demand 20 Quantity Suppose a demand-side tax is imposed. As a result of the tax, the new equilibrium quantity is 5. What is the price paid by consumers? $60 What is the price received by producers? $ How much is the tax that was imposed? How much tax revenue is collected? Which side of the market pays more of the tax? This side of the market pays more of the tax because SA A 4 4) (
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 4 Consider the following supply and demand functions in a market: p=12-2Q p=2Q Suppose the government imposes a tax rate t*=4 on demand. Compute the total legal tax burden (incidence) on producers (after tax t* is imposed). (Enter your answer to one integer. For "8", you would write 8).
Suppose that a market is described by the following supply and demand equations: Q³ = 2P QD=300-P A tax of T is place on buyers, so the new demand equation is QD = 300 - (P+T). The deadweight loss of a tax is the area of the triangle between the supply and demand curves. Recalling that the area of a triangle is 1/2"base height, which of the following functions of T is the deadweight loss? T²/3 2T/3 2*(300-T)/3 (300-T)/3
