Answer:
U.S. Tax Burden on Cola:
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ___$3______ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Explanation:
The tax burden on consumers, which is represented by the difference in the price of cola from $5 to $6 per unit is $1 ($6 - $5). However, the cash received by producers reduced by $3 from $5 to $2. This shows that the total tax burden on both consumers and producers is $4 ($1 + $3).
This represents a total tax burden of $4 or about 67% based on the new selling price of cola or 80% based on the old selling price of cola.
"The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers alone. This because the price of cola would have increased to $9 per unit. Since the demand for cola in this instance is elastic, this change in price would have caused a more than 80% change in the quantity demanded.

Calculation for the no-arbitrage U.S. price of one ADR
First step is to calculate the Equivalent amount of one ADR in euro
Equivalent amount of one ADR in euro = 5 ×€5
Equivalent amount of one ADR in euro = €25
Now let calculate the Dollar value of one ADR
Dollar value of one ADR = €25* €625/1,000
Dollar value of one ADR=€15,625/1,000
Dollar value of one ADR=$15.63
Therefore the no-arbitrage U.S. price of one ADR is:$15.63

Depreciation on trucks = $10,000
Salary paid = $2,000
Period cost = Coolant cost + Depreciation on trucks
= $15,000 + $10,000
= $25,000
