First we must determine the market equilibrium quantity and price. To do this, we set quantity demanded equal to quantity supplied and solve for equilibrium price.QD = 10 - 0.04P = QS = 3.8P + 4
Then P = 1.56, and at this price we have Q = 9.94.
The point elasticity of supply is First we must determine the market equilibrium quantity and price. To do this, we set quantity demanded equal to quantity supplied and solve for equilibrium price.Q<sub>D</sub> = 10 - 0.04P = Q<sub>S</sub> = 3.8P + 4 Then P = 1.56, and at this price we have Q = 9.94. The point elasticity of supply is   The producer surplus is   If the market is taxed $0.25 per unit, the equilibrium price consumers pay is: Q<sub>D</sub> = 10 - 0.04 P<sub>b</sub> = Qs = 3.8(P<sub>b</sub> - 0.25) + 4 Then P<sub>b</sub> = 1.81. The quantity exchanged is 9.93. The new level of producer surplus is: PS' = 4(1.5599) + 0.5(9.93 - 4)(1.5599) = 10.86. The loss in producer surplus associated with the tax is $0.01. The tax generates tax revenues of $2.48. Thus, producers bear less than 1% of the burden of the tax. The producer surplus is First we must determine the market equilibrium quantity and price.
