In the free-market equilibrium of a perfectly competitive market, the price of the good is 90 dollars and the elasticity of demand and the elasticity of supply values are respectively Ed* =  -6.6 and Es* =  4.1 Suppose the government imposes a per-unit tax equal to 10.4 payable by consumers. Calculate the estimate of the price firms charge consumers in the tax equilibrium using the elasticity values provided above. Then enter that price value below.
