Suppose that the demand for picture frames is highly inelastic, and the supply of picture frames is highly elastic. A tax of $1 per frame levied on picture frames will decrease the effective price received by sellers of picture frames by

The decrease in the effective price received by sellers is between $0.51 and $1.

Explanation:

Given the demand for picture = Inelastic

The supply of picture frames = highly elastic

Levied tax on picutre frames = $1

It is given that the demand for the frames is highly inelastic therefore the response of the buyer will be less. That means the proportionate change in demand will be lower than the proportionate change in the price of a commodity. Thus, the answer will be between $0.50 and $1.
