Micro

Elasticity and Taxes

Jadrian Wooten

This assessment question has two layers. First to answer the question correctly, the student must understand elasticity. Second, the student must understand that the tax burden is a function of the interplay between the price elasticity of demand and the price elasticity of supply. Unless your students are well-prepared and already understand this concept well, it is a good idea to illustrate the correct answer graphically to reinforce understanding.
