21-24. The market for concert tickets to see the pop singer Pink has the following supply and demand curves: Supply: P = 20 + 0.0015Q Demand: P = 500 – 0.0025Q Initially, the market is in equilibrium at P = $200, Q = 120,000. Questions 21 to 24 concern this market. 21. The government places a $35 per unit tax on the buyers of concert tickets. At the new equilibrium, the price paid by buyers (including the tax paid and to the nearest cent) will be: A) $200 B) $201.67 C) $205 D) $235 E) $205.83 F) $221.88 G) $186.88 H) $165 I) $278.13 J) None of the above 22. Now suppose that the government alters its policy so that the $35 per unit tax is now placed on the sellers of concert tickets instead of on the buyers. Economic theory tells us the following: A) the buyers’ share and the sellers’ share are reversed by the change in policy B) the buyers’ share and the sellers’ share are not affected by the change in policy C) the shares are affected by the change in policy, but exactly how depends…
