Suppose that a lumber-producing firm had a demand for the ability to burn sawdust given by: Q = 90- P. Where Q is amount of sawdust burned when the firm has to pay price (P) per unit of sawdust burned. Calculate the quantity of sawdust burned if there is a per unit tax of $26 per unit of sawdust burned. (Do not include a $ sign in your response. Round to the nearest 2 decimal places if necessary.)

The demand curve for prepaid internet services is given by Pd = 80 – 0.2Q and the supply curve is given by Ps = 20 + 0.2Q(a) The consumer surplus (CS) is estimated at 2250. (b) An imposition of a tax of PHP10 per unit on prepaid internet services will result in a producer surplus (PS) equivalent to 1262.5. (c) An imposition of a tax of PHP 10 per unit will reduce the CS by 687.5 and PS by 687.5. Thus, the net loss to society with the imposition of a tax is 1375.
The annual demand for liquor in a certain state is given by the following equation: QD=500.000-20.000P where Pis the price per gallon and QD is the quantity of gallons demanded per year. The supply of liquor is given by the equation Qs=30.000P. Now assume that a unit tax of 1$ is levied on the sellers of the commodity (i.e. statutory incidence is on the producers).

A) The town of Dimmsdale is a popular tourist destination. The problem is, the tourists are not always considerate of the beautiful landscapes in and around Dimmsdale. Cleanup efforts cost Dimmsdale $5005 a day. The town has decided that it would be only fair to finance this by a "bed tax"-a per-room-per-night tax on every occupied tourist accommodation room. Denote this tax (in dollars per room per night) by t. Dimmsdale has many small hotels, guest houses, and B&Bs. The providers of these (“hoteliers") can all be assumed to be in perfect competition with each other, and they are all similar enough that tourists consider them perfect substitutes. The demand function for rooms is Q,(p) 700 - 5p, where Q, is the number of rooms demanded and p is the price per room per night in dollars. The marginal cost of providing a room is c = $50 per night, 60% of which is labor costs (accruing to the workers of Sunnyside). The total number of rooms available is fixed at Q = 400 (this cannot be…
18. Suppose that corporate income tax in Japan is 30% for large enterprises. And one of them is Nissan Japan. Assume that Nissan Japan places its electric vehicles (EV) factory in California, USA by setting up Nissan America. California charges enterprises with a 10% corporate (flat) income tax rate. Suppose the demand of Nissan EV in Japan is p=220-2Q (p: price in one hundred thousand yen, Q is number of EV per week). Costs of transporting EV cars from California to Japanese customers and taxes and fees related to export-import activities are assumed to be zero. Its production cost in California is constant at 20 per unit. If Nissan American sells EVS produced in California to Nissan Japan at its production cost, what are the combined net profits of all Nissans and total corporate income tax the Nissan Japan has to pay (per week)? (Note: Nissan Japan will use the transfer price as its marginal cost.) ONet profit=5000; Sum of corporate tax=1500 Net profit=3500; Sum of corporate…
