The correct option is: For each unit of the good that is sold, buyers bear <u>one-half of the tax burden and sellers bear one-half of the tax burden.</u>
<u>Explanation</u>:
Incidence of tax is a term referred in economics which deals with division of taxes. Tax incidence refers to division of tax among the buyer and seller for a product. The tax incidence is related to the price elasticity of supply and demand.
When a product is sold, the buyer of the product is charged with one-half of the tax burden and the seller of the product bears the other-half of the tax burden.
The incidence of tax can be observed in two ways:
i) Formal incidence
ii) Effective incidence
Answer:
coefficient = 0
Explanation:
We have the formula to calculate the price elasticity of demand as following:
<em>Elasticity coefficient = % Change in quantity/ % Change in price</em>
As given:
+) The percentage change in price is: (120-150)/150= - 20%
+) The quantity bought remains unchanged - which means the percentage change in quantity demanded is 0%
=> <em>Elasticity coefficient = % Change in quantity/ % Change in price</em>
<em>= 0/-20 = 0</em>
<em />
<em>So the coefficient of price elasticity of demand in this example would be 0</em>
Answer:
i. New firms will enter the market
iii. In the long run, all firms will be producing at their efficient scale
Explanation:
In the competitive market barriers to entry will be low as there is no monopoly. The firms in the market are experiencing increased profitability as a result of increased demand so the market will be attractive for new firms. This will result in new firms entering into the market. In the short run.
In the long run as more firms enter the market, the firm's will need to produce at efficient scales because of high competition, with the aim of minimising cost.
