These next five problems consider tax incidence. Suppose the market supply and demand for guitars in Happy Valley are given by:
Demand: P = 300 - (1/2)Q
Supply: P = 100 + (1/3)Q
What is the equilibrium price and quantity of the product?
A - P* = 120, Q* = 1200
B - P* = 180, Q* = 240
C - P* = 60, Q* = 480
D - P* = 225, Q* = 150
E - none of the above
What is the price elasticity of demand at the equilibrium price?
A - Elasticity = -1
B - Elasticity = -2
C - Elasticity = -0.5
D - Elasticity = -0.666
E - none of the above
For the next three questions, assume there is $20 per unit tax levied on the consumers of guitars. What price will buyers pay after the tax is imposed?
A - $192
B - $200
C - $160
D - $190
E - none of the above
What is the quantity of the good that will be sold after the tax is imposed?
A - 196
B - 210
C - 224
D - 216
E - none of the above
