- Suppose that the government imposes a tax on heating oil.Would the deadweight loss of this tax likely be greater in the first year after it is imposed or in the fifth year? Would the tax revenue collected from this tax likely be greater in the first year after it is imposed or in the fifth year? A. The deadweight loss and tax revenue would both be greater in the first year than the fifth. B. The deadweight loss would be greater in the first year than the fifth, but the tax revenue would be greater in the fifth year than the first. C. The deadweight loss would be greater in the fifth year than the first, but the tax revenue would be greater in the first year than the fifth. D. The deadweight loss and tax revenue would both be greater in the fifth year.Suppose the demand for a product is given by P = 30 - 3Q. Also, the supply is given by P = 10 + Q. If a $4 per-unit excise tax is levied on the buyers of a good, the deadweight loss created by this tax will be о $24 O None of these O $4 0 $8 О $16(a) Suppose in a competitive market, the market demand curve for salt is infinitelyinelastic. What is the impact of a per-unit tax (i.e. a specific tax) on the priceof salt that consumers pay? Suppose the demand curve for butter is Q = 50 − 3P and the supply curve isQ = 2P. Suppose the government announces a per-unit tax of 1 on the priceof butter. Tax on butter can be seen as a ’fat tax’. What is the overall effectof a fat tax on the consumers? Please do not use chat gpt and answer the best way it can be.
- For Frisbees, the supply curve is the typical upward-sloping straight line, and the demand curve is the typical downward-sloping straight line. A tax of $20 per unit is imposed on blue Frisbees. The tax reduces the equilibrium quantity in the market by 300 units. The deadweight loss from the tax is. O. $3,000 O. $6,000 O. $1,000 O. $2,000Suppose that the same tax is imposed across two competitive markets - A and B. Youknow that across the two markets supply and demand are linear, and that in marketA tax revenue is larger than in market B. Compare the dead weight loss across the twomarkets.Tax incidence.Given:Demand (D): P = 100 – 1.5 Q Q* = 40 P*=40Supply (S): P = 20 + 0.5 Qa. Suppose a specific tax of P10 per unit is imposed on producers.i. What is the new supply function?ii. Solve for the new equilibrium quantity and price after the tax is imposed.b.

How will this alter Donald's utility maximizing market basket of goods? f. Suppose that, instead of the per unit tax in (e), a lump sum tax of the same dollar amount is levied on Donald. What is Donald's utility maximizing market basket? g. The taxes in (e) and (f) both collect exactly the same amount of revenue for the government, which of the two taxes would Donald prefer? Show your answer numerically and explain why Donald prefers the per unit tax over the lump sum tax, or vice versa, or why he is indifferent between the two taxes.Suppose that the government decides to charge cola consumers an excise tax. Before the tax, 12 million cases of cola are sold every month at a price of $3.50 per case. After the tax, 6million cases of cola are sold every month; consumers pay $4.00 per case and producers receive $2.00 per case. a. What is the excise tax on cola?b. On whom does the incidence of the tax fall more heavily?c. How much government revenue will be generated by the excise tax?Q^d= 9.5 - 2p Q^s= o.6p Tax. Suppose that the government imposes a tax equal to T = 0.50 which buyers must pay for every donut they purchase. (a) How does this tax change the supply and/or demand curve for donuts? (b) Solve for the new equilibrium price and quantity of donuts. Give the price paid by the buyer and the price received by the seller. (c) Draw a single supply and demand diagram that compares the equilibrium with and without the tax. Be sure to indicate the equilibrium quantity of donuts sold as well as the price paid by buyers and the price received by sellers in each case. On the same diagram, indicate the areas which represent consumer and producer surplus, tax revenue and the deadweight loss arising from this tax.
- Suppose demand and supply are given by: Q^d=14-0.5P and Q^s=0.25P-1. Determine the equilibrium quantity and price in this market. Show the equilibrium graphically. Suppose a $12 excise tax is imposed on the good.Determine new supply and the new equilibrium quantity and price. How much does producers' revenue change? How much tax revenue does the government earn?GIVEN FOR 1-4; The demand curve for prepaid internet services is given by Pd = 80 – 0.2Q andthe supply curve is given by Ps = 20 + 0.2Q, -------> answer by using TRUE or FALSE. If the statement is correct, write TRUE on your answer sheet. If the statement is incorrect, write FALSE. Explain why you answered TRUE or FALSE. Questions 1-4; 1. The consumer surplus (CS) is estimated at 2250. 2. An imposition of a tax of PHP10 per unit on prepaid internet services will result in aproducer surplus (PS) equivalent to 1262.5. 3. An imposition of a tax of PHP 10 per unit will reduce the CS by 687.5 and PS by 687.5.Thus, the net loss to society with the imposition of a tax is 1375. 4. The tax collected by the government with the imposition of this tax is equivalent to 1500.This tax revenue is a net loss to society.Both a payroll tax and an excise tax on alcoholraise revenue and, respectively, shrink the marketsfor labor and alcohol.
