Answer:
Tax on a case of cola is $4 per case.
The burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case.
The burden that falls on producers is $3 per case
False. This is due to the fact that producers already carry a greater share of the tax burden.
Explanation:
Tax on a case of cola = Amount that consumers pay after the tax has been charged - Amount producers receive = $7 - $3 = $4 per case
Burden on consumers = Amount consumers pay after the tax has been levied - Amount consumers pay before tax was levied = $7 - $5 = $1 per case
Burden on producers = Tax on a case of cola - Burden on consumers = $4 - $1 = $3 per case
False. This is due to the fact that producers already carry a greater share of the tax burden.
Answer:
The correct answer is d. Trade restrictions often provide benefits to highly visible special interest groups while imposing a less visible cost on the general populace.
Explanation:
A trade restriction is an artificial restriction to the exchange of goods and / or services between two countries. It is the byproduct of protectionism. However, the term is controversial because what a party can see as a trade restriction can be seen as a way to protect consumers from inferior, harmful or dangerous products. For example, Germany demanded that beer production adhere to its purity law. The law, originally implemented in Bavaria in 1516 and eventually converted into a law for the newly unified Germany in 1871, meant that many foreign beers could not be sold in Germany as "beer." This law was annulled in 1987 by the Court of Justice of the European Union, but remains voluntarily followed by many German breweries.
