Answer:

c. Alcohol consumption decreases, whereas the alcohol market price increases if the tax is placed on the sellers or decreases if the tax is placed on the buyers.

Explanation:

Elastic demand is the situation that when the price of a good goes up the quantity demanded reduces. Since alcohol demand and supply are both elastic, If commodity tax is imposed on sellers then they decrease the supply and increase the price of alcohol. The increased price of alcohol will make buyers buy less of alcohol thereby reducing the consumption of alcohol.
