A per unit subsidy of EX (where X> 0) is introduced in a market. Hence: Select one answer: O Consumers of the good will pay a price that is £X lower than before the tax was introduced. O The market outcome might be more efficient after the introduction of the subsidy. The subsidy cost is equal to the total amount of money gained by consumers and producers as the subsidy is introduced. O Producers of the good will receive a price that is £X higher than before the tax was introduced.

Suppose the demand for a product is given by P = 100 – 2Q. Also, the supply is given by P = 20 + 6Q. If an $8 per-unit excise tax is levied on the buyers of a good, what proportion of the tax will be paid by the buyers?. Group of answer choices 75% 40% 60% None of these 25%
Consider two consumers with preferences Where Ti is the tax levied in jurisdiction i and Gi is public good provision. Assume a2 > a1. The level of public good in each region is decided by majority voting of its residents. If there are two residents, assume that the supply is the average of the preferred quantities of the residents. a. Show that the preferred quantity of public good for consumer h if they locate in jurisdiction i is given by Gh = niah; where ni is the jurisdiction population. b. Assuming consumers correctly predict the consequences of location choice, show that there is no equilibrium if c. Show that there is an equilibrium if consumers take provision levels as given.
Suppose that in a certain market the demand function for a product is given by p =−8q + 2800 and the supply function is given by p = 3q + 45. Then a tax of $5 per itemis levied on the supplier, who passes it on to the consumer as a price increase. Findthe equilibrium price and quantity after the tax is levied.
Consider an ad-valorem tax on a good X. The Demand for good X is constant elasticity with elasticity -2. The Supply for good Y is constant elasticity with elasticity 3. Consider the same setting as for the previous question. When a tax of 1% of the price is imposed on good X, then equilibrium quantity of X exchanged declines by what percentage?
Apublic good costs PLN 300. Three people vote on whether or not to deliver this good. The gross utilities from consumption of the public good for these individuals are as follows:Ua=-50，Ub=50，Uc=250.A.Who will pay the Vickrey-Groves-Clarke tax if a majority vote is applied? B.Who will pay the Vickrey-Groves-Clarke tax if the decision to deliver the public good is based on net utility sum?
Suppose the demand function for cigarettes is given by Qd=80-20p and the supply is by Qs=10p-10. Suppose the government introduce a specific tax of t=1 to be levied from the produces. 1. Obtain the new supply Curve 2. Determine the new equilibrium quantity and price 3.compute the government revenue 4. Compute the incidence (burden) on the consumer 5.

We have three buyers who value a good at $45. There are three possible sellers A, B, C whose marginal costs of production are $20, $30 and $50.Assuming all benefits (and costs) accrue to the buyers (and sellers) what is total surplus created if the buyers and sellers interact in a market? Do not enter the $sign. Notice that you have enough information to only compute surplus for integer values of the good so I should not have to say–assume integer values for good–you should know it.
The demand and supply functions for stylus pens are given by P = 100 - Q and P = 20 + 5Q, respectively.Now the government imposed a $10 per unit tax on stylus pens collected from sellers. What are themarket equilibrium price and quantity of stylus pens before imposing the tax? What are the marketequilibrium price and quantity of stylus pens after imposing the tax? What is the tax burden imposed onbuyers and sellers, respectively?
Suppose the demand for a product is given by P = 50 –Q. Also, the supply is given by P = 10 + 3Q. If a $12 per-unit excise tax is levied on the buyers of a good, after the tax, the total amount of tax paid by the producers is: None of these $84 $18 $63 $21
I am unsure how to do part C For instance, I am confused if the answer for the private consumer surplus is 20,000 (1/2 (20x2000) OR if it is 5,000 (1/2 (10x1000).
Suppose the market demand for milk is Qd = 40 – 4P Where Qd is millions of gallons demanded and P is price per gallon. Suppose the market supply for milk is Qs = - 40/3 + 20/3P Suppose demand for milk is relative elastic and demand for gasoline is relatively inelastic. Holding all else constant, A.taxing milk will generate lower deadweight losses than the same tax on gasoline. B.taxing milk will generate the same deadweight losses relative the same tax on gasoline. C.taxing milk will generate greater deadweight losses than the same tax on gasoline.
The Health Ministry is evaluating the data of the soft beverages market. Demand function: QD=290−5P Supply function: QS=−60+5P (a) Find the Total Surplus. The authority is concerned about the increasing obesity rate in the country. Hence, they have decided to impose a tax of TK 10 per unit on soft drinks. (b) What is the total new consumer surplus and producer surplus after government intervention? Note: Bartleby does not accept more than 3 sub-parts, and here are only 2.
