Suppose the supply of a good is given by the equation Q1,200P-1,200, and the demand for the good is given by the equation Q-2,400-400P, where quantity (Q) is measured in millions of units and price (P) is measured in dollars per unit. The government decides to levy an excise tax of $1.00 per unit on the good, to be paid by the seller. Calculate the value of each of the following, before the tax and after the tax, to complete the table that follows: 1. The equilibrium quantity produced 2. The equilibrium price consumers pay for the good 3. The price received by sellers Equilibrium Quantity (Millions of units) Equilibrium Price per Unit Paid by Consumers Price per Unit Received by Sellers Before Tax The government receives After Tax Given the information you calculated in the preceding table, the tax incidence on consumers is on producers is per unit of the good. per unit of the good, and the tax incidence in tax revenue from levying an excise tax of $1.00 per unit on this good.

Consider two markets: the market for waffles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $6.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 35.0. When the price is $9.75, the quantity supplied of waffles is 57.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places. Supply in the market for waffles is
You are the manager of a firm that receives revenues of $40,000 per year from product X and $80,000 per year from product Y. The own price elasticity of demand for product X is −1.5, and the cross-price elasticity of demand between product Y and X is −1.8.How much will your firm's total revenues (revenues from both products) change if you increase the price of good X by 1 percent?
Suppose the demand and supply for Xbox-One are: Qd = 500 - 2P, Qs = -100 + 4P . Assume that consumers demand 75 less Xbox units at each price. Also, a new tax has been imposed on foreign microchips, increasing the costs of production, and reducing supply by 35 units at each price Given this information find: a. CS0 = $ b. CS2 = $ c. PS2 = $

Find the producers' surplus at a price level of p = $90 for the price-supply equation below. %3D p= S(x) = 20 + 0.4x + 0.003x? ... The quantity supplied at the price p is x = (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)
The government of a State has been experiencing an increase in number of obesity cases. Research suggests an increase in consumption of a particular fast food item is responsible for high number of obesity cases. As a result, the government of that State is considering an imposition of $1 tax. Monthly demand and supply for this good are QD=21-1P and QS= -1+1P respectively. Draw the demand and Supply curve for fast food before the tax is imposed. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity, consumer and producer surplus, and label them on the graph. Calculate the price elasticity of demand and supply for fast food. If the State government imposes a tax, who will bear the most of the burden of the tax? Suppose that the State government finally imposes a $1 tax on fast food. What will the new equilibrium price and quantity? Include the tax on your graph. Calculate the consumer and producer surplus and label them on the graph. Is there any deadweight loss resulting from the tax on that…
Suppose that the demand curve for a product is given by = 100 – 2 Px+a Py, = £20 is the price of another product, and where a Py %3D where Px = £20, where = 8. a) Calculate the demand for good X in this market at the current price level. How much revenue would the firm make? b) If the firm wishes to increase total revenue, would it need to increase or decrease the current price of good X? c) Calculate the cross-price point elasticity between goods X and Y at the current price level. Are the goods complements or substitutes? Note: The writing is clear and abbreviations are not allowed.
