Answer:
The correct answer is option D.
Explanation:
The demand elasticity is -1.4.
The supply elasticity is 1.2.
Since the demand is elastic, the imposition of tax will not be profitable for the government.
The imposition of tax will increase the price of the good, this will decrease the demand for good, thus the revenue will decrease.
The tax incidence on consumers
= E (supply) / (E (demand)) + E (supply)
= 
= 
= -6
Question:
For an economy starting at potential output, a decrease in autonomous expenditure in the short-run results in a(n):
A. increase in potential output
B. recessionary output gap
C. decrease in potential output
D. expansionary output gap
Answer:
The correct answer is B
Explanation:
A decrease in autonomous expenditure shifts the Planned Aggregate Expenditure curve downward thus creating a lower equilibrium output.
PAE = C + Ip + G + NX
where
PAE = Planned Aggregate Expenditure
C = consumption
Ip = Investment Spending
G = Government Spending
NX = Net Export
If an economy has its output equal to its potential, this will create a reduction in short-run equilibrium output leading to a recessionary output gap.

A duty is a type of tax.
Consider the modern day examples of "duty free" shopping available in places like airports and certain tourist locations where people can purchase luxury goods without owing a tax to any country or locality.
