So here we're talking about tax incidents.
00:03
So we're told about the elasticity of supply and demand for whiskey.
00:07
So let's draw a market for whiskey, right? a market is a story about prices and quantities, upward supply, downward demand.
00:17
At least that's how it normally looks.
00:18
But here we're told something very special.
00:22
We're told that we want a demand for illicity was elastic.
00:27
So we're drawing an elastic demand, right, very flat, very responsive to the price, and we're drawing a very inelastic supply, right? so a very inelastic supply.
00:40
So here we have a market equilibrium that looks like this, right, with a certain price and a certain quantity, right? that would be the whiskey market.
00:50
Now we're going to tax whiskey, right? so the tax is going to be on, it doesn't say if it's on the demand or the supply.
00:59
So i'm just going to put it on the supply side.
01:01
Tax on whiskey.
01:05
So this is going to increase the price as we do something like that.
01:12
Here's my supply curve plus the tax...
