Now calculate the government's tax revenue if it sets a tax of $0, $2, $4, 55, 56, 58, or $10 per pack. (Hint: To find the equilibrium quantity after thetax, adjust the "Quantity" field until the Tax equals the value of the per-unit tax.) Using the data you generate, plot a Laffer curve by using the greenpoints (triangle symbol) to plot total tax revenue at each of those tax levels.Note: Plot your points in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically.TAX REVENUE (Dollars)2001801601401201004020o3TAX (Dolars per pack)10ALaffer Curve PRICE (Dollars per pack)109tonAND0SupplyDemand0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100QUANTITY (Packs)Suppose the government imposes a $2-per-pack tax on suppliers.At this tax amount, the equilibrium quantity of cigarettes isGraph Input ToolMarket for CigarettesQuantity(Packs)Demand Price(Dollars per pack)Tax(Dollars per pack)406.002.00Supply Price(Dollars per pack)40 packs, and the government collects4.00$80 in tax revenue.

In a certain country, income tax is assessed as follows: There is NO tax on income up to $15,000. Income over $15,000 up to $30,000 is taxed at 12%. Income over $30,000 is taxed at 18%. Answer the following questions in a paragraph. 1) Write the piecewise function of this country (make sure to use decimals instead of percent). 2) Determine how much tax is to be paid on an income of $20,000.

Suppose the relationship between the government's tax revenue (T) and national income (Y) is represented by the equation T = 30 +0.5Y. Plot this relationship on a scale diagram, with Y on the horizontal axis and T on the vertical axis. Interpret the equation. Use the line drawing tool to draw the equation. Make sure to plot the vertical axis as one endpoint of the line. Properly label this line. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.
