Answer:

$1.25

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

The pre-tax price of gasoline = $1 per gallon

Imposed tax per gallon = $0.50

Now,

The total tax burden on the consumer is $0.50

considering the condition that the consumer tax burden is equal to the producer tax burden

The total tax burden will be divided in equal parts to the consumer and the producer

Thus,

The equal tax burden will be = [ Total tax burden ] ÷ 2

= $0.50 ÷ 2

= $0.25

Hence,

The gross price of gasoline after the tax will be = $1 + $0.25

= $1.25
