You have been asked to explain to Magdalena Andersson and Per Bolund what the effects will be of raising the tax on petrol by SEK 2 per liter (the tax is paid by the sellers). Magdalena Andersson (Minister of Finance) would very much like to know how much the tax revenue is affected and Per Bolund (Minister of the Environment) would like to know how the consumption of petrol (and thereby the environment) is affected. Explain to them under what circumstances consumption decreases much and little, and under what circumstances the tax increases much and little. Keep in mind that Per Bolund has not studied economics, so you should explain the terms you use if there is a risk of misunderstanding.

The domestic supply and demand curves for Jolt coffee beans are given by P= 20 + 1Q and P= 140-2Q, respectively,
where Pis the price in dollars per bushel, and Q is the quantity in millions of bushels per year. The United States produces
and consumes only a trivial fraction of world Jolt bean output, and the current world price of $35/bushel is unaffected by
events in the U.S. market. Transportation costs are also negligible.
Instructions: Enter your answer for price to the nearest dollar. For the number of bushels, enter your answer rounded to 1
decimal place.
