## Government-Imposed Tax on Market Equilibrium### Graph Analysis of After-Tax Market EquilibriumThis graph depicts the effects of a government-imposed tax on a market, showing the shifts in supply and demand curves. The labeled points and areas represent critical components of the market dynamics:1. **Axes**: - The vertical axis represents the **Price (Dollars per blinkie)**. - The horizontal axis represents the **Quantity (Blinkies)**.2. **Curves**: - The **Demand** curve slopes downward from left to right, indicating that as the price decreases, the quantity demanded increases. - The **Supply** curve slopes upward from left to right, indicating that as the price increases, the quantity supplied increases.3. **Equilibrium Points**: - The **pre-tax equilibrium** is where the original supply and demand curves intersect. - The **after-tax equilibrium** points are indicated by grey star symbols. These denote the new intersection points of the supply and demand curves after a tax has been placed on the market.4. **Price Changes**: - **Pre-tax Equilibrium Price**: This original intersection sets the price and quantity without any tax intervention. - **Post-tax Price to Buyers** is reflected at point B (about $22.00). - **Post-tax Price to Sellers** is reflected at point E (about $14.00). 5. **Quantity Changes**: - **Pre-tax Quantity** is at the initial intersection of supply and demand curves. - **Post-tax Quantity** decreases to the new equilibrium (about 28 units).6. **Areas**: - **A and F (Consumer and Producer Surplus Lost)**: These areas may represent the deadweight loss due to the tax, which is the loss of total surplus that results from the tax. - **B and D (Consumer and Producer Surplus with Tax)**: These areas indicate the remaining consumer and producer surplus after the tax. - **C (Tax Revenue)**: This area represents the government's tax revenue derived from the tax imposed on each unit sold.### Instructions:Complete the following table using the information extracted and interpreted from the graph.---This detailed analysis should help students understand the impact of government-imposed taxes on market equilibrium, highlighting the shifts and changes in price, quantity, and welfare within the market. ### Understanding the Impact of Taxation on Market Equilibrium#### IntroductionThis section aims to help students understand the changes in market equilibrium and welfare distribution due to the imposition of a tax, using graphical representation and data tables.---#### Graph ExplanationThe provided graph depicts the market for "Blinkies" with the quantity on the x-axis and price on the y-axis. Key points illustrated are:- **Equilibrium Quantity Before Tax:** Initially, the market equilibrium quantity is shown at 36 units of Blinkies.- **Quantity Change After Tax:** With the imposition of tax, the quantity decreases to 28 units.The graph illustrates areas representing various economic concepts such as consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss.---#### Data Table CompletionStudents should use the graph to fill in the following table:**Results Table**| Result | Value ||---------------------------------------|-------------------------|| Price consumers pay after tax | \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ || Per-unit tax | \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ || Equilibrium quantity before tax | \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ |---#### Economic Impact AnalysisIn the subsequent table, match the correct areas on the graph to the relevant economic concept based on their locations and shapes on the graph.**Concept Identification Table**| Concept | A | B | C | D | E | F ||----------------------------------------------|------|------|------|------|------|------|| Deadweight loss after the tax is imposed | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ || Producer surplus after the tax is imposed | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ || Consumer surplus before the tax is imposed | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ | ☐ |---#### Detailed Concept Explanation- **Deadweight Loss After Tax:** Represents the lost welfare because taxes create a gap between the price consumers pay and the price producers receive, leading to a reduction in the traded quantity.- **Producer Surplus After Tax:** The difference between what producers are willing to accept and what they actually receive after the tax is imposed.- **

Consumer surplus is the area above the market price and below the demand curve upto quantity…
