1. An excise tax (sales tax) is imposed on producers of a good. For a given supply curve, the more price elastic the demand for the product, the greater the tax incidence on (the party that pays more portion of tax):
Producers
Both
Consumers
Neither
Homework Answers
"Producer"
As the demand is price elastic, the demand will change if the price increase. So the producer will have to bear the tax on the good. The answer is "A" producer.

Feel free to use any spaces for scratch work. 1) Consider the excise tax lectured in class. For a given excise tax, we can correctly predict that consumer tax incidence will be less than producer tax incidence when: a) Both the demand and the supply curves are more inelastic. b) The demand curve is inelastic and the supply curve is elastie. c) The demand curve is elastic and the supply curve is inelastic. d) Both the demand and...

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.
