- Discuss the effect of elasticity of demand on consumer and producer surplus and give examples.I tried to graph in part 1 but I am unsure how I did. I would appreciate it if you can correct me and I don't understand part 2 3. Relationship between tax revenues, deadweight loss, and demand elasticity The government is considering levying a tax of $80 per unit on suppliers of either leather jackets or smartphones. The supply curve for each of these two goods is identical, as you can see on each of the following graphs. The demand for leather jackets is shown by DLDL (on the first graph), and the demand for smartphones is shown by DSDS (on the second graph). Suppose the government taxes leather jackets. The following graph shows the annual supply and demand for this good. It also shows the supply curve (S+TaxS+Tax) shifted up by the amount of the proposed tax ($80 per jacket). On the following graph, use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area that represents tax revenue for leather jackets. Then use the black triangle (plus symbols) to shade the area that…Don't use chatgpt and make sure you include the graphs needed (a) Suppose in a competitive market, the market demand curve for salt is infinitelyinelastic.
