Assume that bread and butter are complementary goods. The government begins to subsidize the production of wheat, which is an input in the production of bread. (a) For each of the following markets, draw correctly labelled supply and demand graphs and show the effect of the subsidy on the equilibrium price and quantity in the short run. (i) The wheat market. (ii) The bread market. (iii) The butter market. (b) If the demand for bread is price elastic, how will total revenues for the bread producers change as a result of the government subsidy? Explain. (c) If the main objective of taxation is to raise revenues for the government, rather than to discourage consumption of a particular good, the best type of good to tax is one that is inelastically supplied, rather than one that is elastically supplied. True, False, or Uncertain? Explain using clearly labelled diagrams.
