Homework Answers
Answer is B.
Burden will be equal on both consumer and producer because elasticity of both demand and supply are equal.
Relationship between elasticity and tax burden is such that more elastic have less burden. So relationship between elasticity and tax burden is opposite. Here both have same elasticity so burden will be born equally.

Question 5 1 pts Assuming that a $500 excise tax is imposed in a market. The consumer share of the actual tax incidence turns out to be $100, while the producers' share of the tax burden turns out to be $400. O This implies that supply is relatively more elastic than demand This implies that demand is relatively more elastic than supply O Tax Burden and elasticity are unrelated concepts.
