Suppose you observed that the consumption of organges increased sharply last year, however thet total consumer expenditure on oranges did not change. Did a supply shift, demand shift or both cause this? explain using graphs
The government of the island nation of Autarka has become increasingly concerned aboutthe health and wellbeing of low income households. Medical experts stress the importanceof a healthy diet in this regard. They have determined that, ideally, a household wouldconsume at least 5kg of fresh fruit and vegetables each week.The government has proposed implementing a new voucher scheme to ensure that the5kg per week consumption target is met. Under the government’s proposal, the voucherswould be redeemable for fresh fruit and vegetables, but could not be used for other typesof food, or for non-food consumption. Moreover, to limit the cost of the voucher scheme,the value of the vouchers sent to a household would be linked to the household’s income.Community groups in Autarka have expressed concern that a voucher scheme is unnec-essarily paternalistic; depriving low income households of the choice of how to spend theirincome. These groups argue that the government’s consumption targets could…

President Biden has proposed a $2.2 trillion Infrastructure package to repair roads and bridges. Some policy analysts think that at least one part of the funding will be an increase in the federal excise tax on gasoline. Suppose the size of this increase in excise tax is written as t. Using a graph analyze and explain the impact of this t dollars per gallon increase in excise tax on gasoline. Which of the curve(s), if any, would shift, and why? Graphically, show the new equilibrium price and quantity (labeling it P1 and Q1). At the new equilibrium, please determine how much of the tax increase was borne by gasoline consumers and how much was absorbed by gasoline sellers? Indicate the incidence of taxation for both consumers and sellers on the graph and explain. What will determine whether consumers or sellers will bear a higher relative burden of taxation? Please explain in detail.
