Suppose that the U. S. government decides to charge cola producers a tax. Before the tax, 50,000 cases of cola were sold every week at a price of $6 per case. After the tax, 44,000 cases of cola are sold every week; consumers pay $7 per case, and producers receive $3 per case (after paying the tax).The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $_ per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ per case, and the burden that falls on producers is $ per case. The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers. a. Trueb. False

A)$4, $1 and $3 B) false

Explanation:

-Consumers pay $7now, and used to pay $6 so the tax resulted in an increase to the consumer by a dollar $1 for a bottle.

-Producers used to get $6 a bottle, and now they only get $3 a bottle, so there is a $3 of tax per bottle from that information.

-Therefore the answers is that the tax is a total of $4per bottle, with $1 fon the consumer and $3 on the producer.

The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ ___1__ per case, and the burden that falls on producers is $3_ per case.

B) False . This is because the effect of the tax on the quantity of cola sold would have been SMALLER if the tax had been levied on consumers.

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
