If the government removes a $1 tax on sellers of gasoline and imposes the same $1 tax on buyers of gasoline, then the price paid by buyers will

not change, and the price received by sellers will not change.

Refer to Figure 6-1. A binding price ceiling is shown in

panel (b) only.

Refer to Figure 8-1. Suppose the government imposes a tax of P' - P'''. The area measured by L+M+Y represents

producer surplus before the tax.

If a nonbinding price ceiling is imposed on a market, then the

quantity sold in the market will stay the same.

Refer to Figure 6-14. If the horizontal line on the graph represents a price floor, then the price floor is

not binding, and there will be no surplus or shortage of the good.

Suppose the government imposes a tax of P' - P'''. Which area is the deadweight loss?

Table 7-5 For each of three potential buyers of oranges, the table displays the willingness to pay for the first three oranges of the day. Assume Allison, Bob, and Charisse are the only three buyers of oranges, and only three oranges can be supplied per day. First Orange - Second Orange - Third Orange Allison $2.00 $1.50 $0.75 Bob $1.50 $1.00 $0.60 Charisse $0.75 $0.25 $0 Refer to Table 7-5. The market quantity of oranges demanded per day is exactly 7 if the price of an orange, P, satisfies

$0.25 < P < $0.60.

The amount of deadweight loss caused by the tariff equals

$100

Figure 9-22The following diagram shows the domestic demand and domestic supply in a market. In addition, assume that the world price in this market is $40 per unit. Refer to Figure 9-22. With free trade, total surplus is

Without trade, consumer surplus is

$845

At equilibrium price, producer surplus is

$900

If the government imposes a price ceiling of $90 in this market, then the consumer surplus will be
