Answer:

d.Raise the prices at both restaurants, but raise the price of Bob's Breakfast more.

Explanation:

Price elasticity is a measure of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

When price is inelastic change in price results in small or no change in demand.

When price is elastic a small change causes a large change in demand.

If the owner increases price for Nancy's Famous Breakfast and places a even higher price for Bob's Breakfast, the customers that patronise Bob's Breakfast will reduce. Those that stay will pay higher price.

More people will buy from Nancy's Famous Breakfast also at an increased price.

A deadweight loss is a consequence of a tax on a good because the tax a. induces the government to increase its expenditures. b.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

B) induces buyers to consume less, and sellers to produce less.

Explanation:

Taxes are a necessary evil since they always increase the price of the goods and services that consumers buy and decrease the amount of money that producers receive from selling their goods and services. But taxes are necessary and unavoidable.

But once a market assumes all the effects of existing taxes it reaches an equilibrium price that both consumers and producers are satisfied with. If a new tax is levied than the deadweight losses are greater since consumer surplus and producer surplus are both reduced. This will lead to a reduction in the incentive that both consumers and producers have to engage in transactions. Many times consumers will substitute heavily taxed goods for other goods since they feel they are getting more from consuming those goods (consumer surplus). The same happens to producers, many producers will change their heavily taxed goods for other goods.

If the price elasticity of demand or supply of a certain good is large (elastic demand and supply), the deadweight loss will be greater.
