1. Say the demand curve for a good is linear, given by Q = a − b(1 + t), where the producer price of the good is fixed and equal to $1, and t is the existing tax rate. (a) Determine an expression for the excess burden (EB) of the tax for this demand curve in terms of the demand parameters a and b and the tax rate t (express it as a positive amount). (5) (b) Determine an expression...
