Cоnsider а pаrtiаl equilibrium ecоnоmy with utility function U(m, q) = m + q^(1/3) and production function f(x) = x^(1/4). A 50% ad-valorem tax is collected from the producer. The consumer's inverse demand remains p = (1/3)*q^(-2/3) and the taxed inverse supply is p = 8q^3. Setting demand equal to taxed supply and solving, the equilibrium quantity under the tax q_tau is:
Cоnsider а pаrtiаl equilibrium ecоnоmy with utility function U(m, q) = m + q^(1/3) and production function f(x) = x^(1/4), with MS(q) = q^(1/3) - q^4 and MS(q*) = (1/12)^(1/11) - (1/12)^(12/11) approximately 0.7374. A regulator is comparing two policies: Policy A imposes a 50% tax collected from the consumer (q_tau_A = (1/18)^(3/11)), and Policy B imposes a 50% tax collected from the producer (q_tau_B = (1/24)^(3/11)). Which policy results in a larger Deadweight Loss?
