1. Understanding the implications of taxes on welfare The following graph represents the demand and supply for blinkies (an imaginary product). The black point (plus symbol) indicates the pre-tax equilibrium. Suppose the government has just decided to impose a tax on this market; the grey points (star symbol) indicate the after-tax scenario. PRICE (Dollars per blinkie) Demand Supply A 56.00 40.00 B DE 24.00 F QUANTITY (Blinkies) Complete the following table, given the information presented on the graph. Result Per-unit tax Value Price producers receive after tax Equilibrium quantity before tax (?) In the following table, indicate which areas on the previous graph correspond to each concept. Check all that apply. Concept Producer surplus before the tax is imposed Deadweight loss after the tax is imposed Consumer surplus after the tax is imposed A B C D E F ☐ ☐ ☐
4. The Laffer curve Government-imposed taxes cause reductions in the activity that is being taxed, which has important implications for revenue collections. To understand the effect of such a tax, consider the monthly market for gin, which is shown on the following graph. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly. PRICE (Dollars per bottle) 100 90 80 20 10 0 0 Supply Demand 14 28 42 56 70 84 98 112 126 140 QUANTITY (Bottles) Graph Input Tool At this tax amount, the equilibrium quantity of gin is Market for Gin Suppose the government imposes a $20-per-bottle tax on suppliers.
