20-4 The Relationship Between
Taxes and Elasticity (1 of 3)
► 20-4a Who Pays the Tax?
• The placement of a tax is not the same as its payment
• Example: the DVD tax:
• Although the full tax was place don the sellers, they
paid only ½ of it
• Although none of the tax was placed on buyers, they
paid ½ of it, too
• Lesson: government can place a tax on whomever it
wants, but the laws of supply and demand determine
who actually ends up paying it
