Answer:

B. buyers bear most of the incidence of the tax.

Explanation:

If demand is inelastic, quantity demanded is insensitive to changes in price.

If supply is elastic, a small change in price has a great effect on quantity supplied. Quantity supplied is sensitive to changes in price.

If a tax is imposed on gasoline, the incidence (who pays for the tax) can be beqred by the consumers because they have an inelastic demand. If the price of gasoline rises , the quantity demanded doesn't change.

If the tax incidence was borne by the suppliers, the quantity supplied would drop.

I hope my answer helps you.

A Treasury bill with 119 days to maturity is quoted at 97.630. What are the bank discount yield, the bond equivalent yield, and
Dovator [93]

Answer:

discount yield=7.17%

bond equivalent yield=7.34%

effective annual yield =7.64%

Explanation:

Discount yield =discount /face value*360/t

where t is the number of days to maturity

discount =face value -issue price

discount=100-97.63

discount=2.37

discount yield =2.37/100*360/119

discount yield=7.17%

bond equivalent yield=(1+periodic yield)^360/t-1

periodic yield =discount/face value=2.37/100=2.37%

bond equivalent yield =(1+2.37%)^(360/119)-1

bond equivalent yield=7.34%

effective annual yield=(1+HPY)^365/t-1

Holding period yield (HPY)=discount/price=2.37/97.63

HPY=2.43%

effective annual yield=(1+2.43%)^(365/119)-1

effective annual yield =7.64%
