In this module, we learned about deadweight loss and analyzed the welfare effects of a tax on a good.  Now consider the opposite policy.  Suppose that the government subsidizes a good: For each unit of the good sold, the government pays $2 to the buyer.  How does the subsidy affect consumer surplus, producer surplus, tax revenue, and total surplus?  Does a subsidy lead to a deadweight loss? Why or why not?
