3. Suppose the market for widgets can be described by the following equations: Demand: P= 10 - Q Supply: P=Q-4 where P is the price in dollars per unit and Q is the quantity in thousands of units. a. What is the equilibrium price and quantity? (2 points) b. Suppose the government imposes a tax of $1 per unit to reduce widget consumption and raise government revenues. What will the new equilibrium quantity be? What price will the buyer pay?...
Suppose the demand for video games is q=40-2p and the supply is q=3p, and there is a quantity tax, $5 per unit of the video game. 1. Compute the equilibrium quantity and price before the tax; 2. Compute the equilibrium quantity and prices for both buyers and sellers after the tax; 3. Compute the total tax revenue raised by the government and the fraction of tax the buyers need to paytax paid by buyers/total tax revenue). 4. Compute the dead...
Suppose the market for widgets can be described by the following equations: Demand: P = 20 - 1.000 Supply: P = 1.000 -6, where P is the price in dollars per unit and Q is the quantity in thousands of units.

1. The market for a product has inverse demand and supply functions given by p=290 - 20, and p = 10 + 1.5Q, e. Suppose the state government levies a tax of $45 on each unit sold, imposed on the sellers. Draw the new Supply curve on (c) and label it S2. Write out the new Supply equation and find the new after-tax equilibrium quantity traded in the market. What is the price that consumers pay on the market (Pc)....
1) Suppose that the demand curve for oranges is given by the equation 0200P+ 1000 with quantity (Q) measured in oranges per day and price (P) given in dollars per orange. The supply curve is given by 0 300P Suppose that a $1.00 per unit sales tax is placed on oranges. What are the equations for the new supply and demand curves? What is the new equilibrium price and quantity of oranges? What do buyers pay per unit? What do...
