(ALL OWNERSHIP GOES TO CENGAGE) The government is considering levying a tax of $120 per unit on suppliers of either pickleball paddles or metro cards. The supply curve for each of these two goods is identical, as you can see on each of the following graphs. The demand for pickleball paddles is shown by DP (on the first graph), and the demand for metro cards is shown by DM (on the second graph). Suppose the government taxes pickleball paddles. The following graph shows the annual supply and demand for this good. It also shows the supply curve (S+Tax) shifted up by the amount of the proposed tax ($120 per paddle). On the following graph, use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area that represents tax revenue for pickleball paddles. Then use the black triangle (plus symbols) to shade the area that represents the deadweight loss associated with the tax. (image is below) Instead, suppose the government taxes metro cards. The following graph shows the annual supply…
The demand for mineral water is P=10 – (2/3) Q and supply function for mineral water isP=1+(1/3)Qa) Find the equilibrium price and quantity and Price elasticities of demand and supply.b) Suppose a unit tax (t) is imposed on suppliers (t= 3TL). Find the new equilibrium.c) Find the price that consumers pay and the price that producers get after the tax.d) What is the burden of the tax on producers and consumers and explain how the tax burden isrelated to elasticities? thank you in advance.
Alvin’s demand for bottled water is given by QdA = 8−0.5P. Betty’s demand function is QdB = 6 − P. Calculate Alvin and Betty’s marginal and total willingness to pay for four bottles of water and illustrate graphically. Compute the aggregate demand for bottled water, assuming Alvin and Betty are the only consumers. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer.

When airfares between Santa Rosa and Los Angeles averages $69, the quantity consumed is 42,500 tickets. One day, an airline tax is levied equal to $10.00 and output falls to 37,000 tickets. Assume that air travelers end up paying 75% of the tax. Total taxes paid by air travelers will be ____ Total taxes paid by airlines will be ____ Calculate the price elasticity of demand and & interpret coefficient. Use the general formula, not the mid point formula Calculate the price elasticity of supply and interpret coefficient. Use the general formula, not the mid point formula. How do total sales in the airline market before and after the tax support your answer in (n) and/or (o)?
Consider the market for BP gasoline. If the market has a very elastic supply and a very inelastic demand, how would the burden of a tax on BP gasoline be shared between producers and consumers? Draw a graph to support your answer.
Only typed answer Green et al. (2005) estimate that the demand elasticity is minus−0.47 and the long-run supply elasticity is 12.0 for almonds. The corresponding elasticities are minus−0.68 and 0.73 for cotton and minus−0.26 and 0.64 for processing tomatoes. If the government were to apply a specific tax to each of these commodities, what incidence would fall on consumers? The incidence of a specific almond tax that would fall on consumers is nothing___percent. (Enter numeric responses using real numbers rounded to one decimal place.)
The market supply and demand for a product are shown in the diagram below. Is the price elasticity of supply less than one, equal to one, or greater than one? Explain. Calculate consumer surplus at the equilibrium price. Show your work. Now suppose the government imposes a per-unit tax of $1 on producers. What happens to total revenue received by producers after they pay the tax to the government? Explain. Will producer surplus increase, decrease, or stay the same? Will total surplus increase, decrease, or stay the same? Explain.

With an inverse demand equation P = 10 – 0.05Q and the inverse supply equation P = 1 + 0.10Q: Please calculate and illustrate Total Surplus and Deadweight loss when the: a. output purchased and sold is Q = 50b. output purchased and sold is Q = 70
In a competitive market in which P = 100 − 2Q is the inverse demand for fuel and P = 10 + Q is the inverse supply of fuel. Calculations are preferred, but you may use a graph for partial Without a tax, what is the market-clearing price and output, P and Q? What is the consumer surplus and producer surplus (with no tax) If a tax on fuel is set at $15, how much fuel will be purchased? You can assume that the buyers pay the tax (but it doesn’t matter). What is the deadweight loss of the tax? Thanks!

(15 , 21)
Suppose the market for cigarette is competitive. An economist estimates the price elasticity of demand and supply for cigarette are -0.8 and 0.7 respectively. Suppose the government imposes a per-unit tax on the cigarette sellers. Who, buyers or sellers, would share a heavier tax burden? Explain your answers without calculation.
