Suppose that the U. S. government decides to charge wine consumers a tax. Before the tax, 25 million bottles of wine were sold every month at a price of $6 per bottle. After the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month; consumers pay $8 per bottle (including the tax), and producers receive $5 per bottle. The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $ per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $ per bottle.?

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that before the tax, 25 million wine bottles were sold at price of $6 per bottle and that after the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month and the consumers pay $8 per bottle which include the tax and producers receive $5 per bottle.

The amount of tax on wine will be the difference between the price consumers pay after the tax and the price producers receive. This will be:

= $8 - $5

= $3 per bottle

The tax burden that falls on the consumers will be difference between price paid after tax and the price which is paid before the tax.

= $8 - $6

= $2 per bottle

The tax burden on the producers will be difference between price received before the tax and price received after the tax.

= $6 - $5

= $1 per bottle
