What decision would be made under minimax regret?
Question 1:
This question asks you to reconsider the model of optimal sin taxes that we studied in class with
a different distribution of types. Assume that everyone has p
65 and y= 40. Assume further that
proportion o of the population has B = 0.85 while proportion 1– o has B = 1 (both types have
8 = 1).
(a) As a function of o and t, what is the uniform lump-sum transfer?
(b) As a function of o and t, derive an expression for social welfare.
(c) Solve for the optimal tax.
(d) How does the optimal tax depend on ø? Provide some intuition for this answer.
