Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge wine producers a tax. Before the tax, 30,000 bottles of wine were sold every

week at a price of $4 per bottle. After the tax, 25,000 bottles of wine are sold every week; consumers pay $6 per bottle, and producers receive $3 per bottle (after paying the tax). The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $ per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $ per bottle. True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been smaller if the tax has been levied on consumers. True

Answer:

Explanation:

We were informed from the question that;

BEFORE; the tax, 30,000 bottles of wine were sold every week at a price of $4 per bottle.

AFTER; After the tax, 25,000 bottles of wine are sold every week; consumers pay $6 per bottle and producers receive $3 per bottle (after paying the tax).

✓✓The amount of tax on wine = $6 - $3 = $3 per bottle

✓✓The tax burden on consumers = The amount paid after tax - The amount paid before tax

= $6 - $4

=$2 per bottle

✓✓The tax burden on Producers = Price received before tax - price received after tax

= $4 - $3

=$1 per bottle

Hence, The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $3 per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $2 per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $1 per bottle.

The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been smaller if the tax had been levied on consumers(FALSE)

This is false, since the The tax burden on Producers is $1 per bottle while that of The tax burden on consumer is $2 per bottle.

Chuck, a single taxpayer, earns $75,000 in taxable income and $10,000 in interest from an investment in City of Heflin bonds. (U
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Given that,

Taxable income = $75,000

Interest from an investment = $10,000

Using the U.S tax rate schedule in 2017

(a) Federal tax will he owe = $5,226.25 + 25% × ($75,000 - $37,950)

                                            = $5,226.25 +  $9262.5

                                            = $14,488.75

(b) Average\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{Total\ Tax}{Taxable\ Income}

    Average\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{14,488.75}{75,000}

                                             = 19.32%.

(c)Effective\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{Total\ Tax}{Total\ Income}

Effective\ Tax\ Rate = \frac{14,488.75}{75,000 + 10,000}

                                        = 17.05%          

(d) Chuck is currently in the 25 percent tax rate bracket.

His marginal tax rate on increases in income up to $16,900 and deductions from income up to $37,050 is 25 percent.

If the federal reserve banks mailed everyone in the United States a new $1000.00 bill, what would happen to prices, output, and
Artemon [7]

If the Fed mailed everyone a $1,000, the effect would be a <u>rise in prices, </u>output, and income.

<h3 /><h3>What happens when money is injected into the economy?</h3>

The Equation of exchange is:

<em>Money supply x Velocity of money = Price level x Quantity of goods and services produced </em>

If the Money supply increases like it will when $1,000 is sent by the Fed to people, the velocity will also rise as people purchase more goods and services.

The Price level and the Quantity produced on the right side of the equation would also have to rise to match the left side. So prices would rise, and so would output.

Find out more on the equation of exchange at brainly.com/question/10110078.
