In order to raise tax revenue and reduce cigarette sales, the government decided to impose a new alcohol tax on all beer sales. One year after introducing the tax, the government found that the tax was most effective in reducing beer sales among young people but did not have a significant effect on others. What can this information tell you about the demand curves?
How does a supply curve differ from a demand curve and at what point do they intersect?
On the following graph, plot Jake's demand for shoes using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Latasha's demand for shoes using the purple
points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market demand for shoes using the blue points (circle symbol).
Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right.

The market price of a tablet is shown by the black horizontal line at $80. Each rectangle you can place on the following graph corresponds to a particular buyer in this market: orange (square symbols) for Larry, green (triangle symbols) for Megan, purple (diamond symbols) for Raphael, tan (dash symbols) for Susan, and blue (circle symbols) for Alex. Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing consumer surplus for each person who is willing and able to purchase a tablet at a market price of $80. (Note: If a person will not purchase a tablet at the market price, indicate this by leaving his or her rectangle in its original position on the palette.)arrow_forwardIf cereal is normal good, this will cause the demand for cereal to increase or decrease.arrow_forward

Show the effect of this change on the market for electric guitars by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
