Mountain has recorded the following for the past nine months:

January:

Number of Cavities= 375

Total cost= $5,300

February:

Number of Cavities  500

TC= 5,850

March

Number of Cavities 350

TC= 5,200

April

Number of Cavities 600

TC=6,250

May

Number of Cavities 325

TC= 5,150

June

Number of Cavities 475

TC= 5,700

July

Number of Cavities 525

TC= 6,100

August

Number of Cavities  575

TC= 6,300

September

Number of Cavities  450

TC= 5,550

A) Variable cost= (Highest activity cost - lowest activity cost) / (Highest activity units - lowest activity units)

Variable cost= (6300 - 5150) / (600 - 325)= 4.18 per unit

Fixed cost= HACost - (variable cost per unit * HAUnits)= 6300 - (4.18*600)= 3792

Fixed cost= LACost - (variable cost per unit* LAUnits)= 5150 - (4.18*325)= 3792

B)  Q= 400

Total cost= 3792 + 4.18*400= $5464

Suppose the government in your city imposes a $0.50 excise tax on gasoline. the burden of this tax falls on:_____.
MAXImum [283]

Let's say that gasoline is subject to a $0.50 excise tax in your city. This tax affects both buyers and sellers equally.

Depending on the elasticity of demand and supply, a tax's burden is split between purchasers and sellers. Depending on their alternatives, buyers' and sellers' desire to exit the market is represented by elasticity. The relationship between supply and demand price elasticity and tax incidence is also possible. The tax burden is placed on the purchasers when supply is more elastic than demand. The cost of the tax will be borne by the producers if demand is more elastic than supply.

Learn more about the burden of this tax here.
