Answer:

Per Unit specific tax = $3 : Increases price paid by buyers by $3 (if demand is perfectly inelastic) <u>OR</u> Doesn't change buyers' paid price (if supply is perfectly inelastic) <u>OR</u> Partially increases price by <$3 (based on relative demand & supply inelasticity)

Explanation:

Indirect taxes (eg-specific per unit tax) is an example of tax whose incidence & impact fall on different people , burden can be shifted from sellers to buyers .

However  burden of a per unit tax is beared by consumers or producers more, depends on relative inelasticity of demand  and supply .

If demand is more inelastic , more tax burden is shifted to buyers & if supply is more inelastic , more tax burden is beared by the seller itself .

Reason : Because Elasticity is the responsiveness of buyers demand & sellers supply to product price , more burden is shifted to the economic agent (buyers / sellers) who are less sensitive / more insensitive to change in price for their demand / supply

Pachacha [2.7K]

Explanation:

(a) Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - MPC )

c) If the Marginal propensity to import is 0.3 then the import will increase by:

= 150 × 0.3

= 45 million

The law of supply illustrates all the quantities of goods that producers are willing and able to sell at every possible price.

<h3>What is the law of supply?</h3>

The law of supply states that when prices increase, the quantity supplied increases and when price falls, the quantity supplied falls. This shows that price and quantity supplied are positively related. This explains why the supply curve is positively sloped.
