### Calculating Tax IncidenceSuppose that the U.S. government decides to impose a tax on beer production. Before the tax, 10 billion cases of beer were sold every year at a price of $7 per case. After the tax, 9 billion cases of beer are sold every year; consumers pay $9 per case, and producers receive $6 per case (after paying the tax).- The amount of the tax on a case of beer is **$3** per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on producers is **$1** per case, and the burden that falls on consumers is **$2** per case. - True or False: The division of the tax burden in this example would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers. - True - False
