Question

The amount of amount of deadweight loss as a result of the tax is:______

Answer 1

Answer:

D. $5,000

Explanation:

This deadweight in a lot of cases are seen to occur especially when demand and supply are not in equilibrium and in and in the above scenario, it is pegged at $5000. Therefore sometimes consumers experience shortages, and producers earn but they'd otherwise.

Taxes are also seen in the creation of deadweight loss because they prevent people from engaging in purchases they'd otherwise make because the ultimate price of the merchandise is above the equilibrium value. If taxes on an item rise, the burden is commonly split between the producer and therefore the consumer, resulting in the producer receiving less cash in on the item and therefore the customer paying the next price.
