Ed=20000-200w
Es= 600w
a.At equilibrium Es=Ed
20000-200w= 600w
W*= 20000/800= $25
Employment*= 600*25= 15000
b. Tax=$10
Ed'= 20000-200(w+20)= 20000-200w-4000= 16000-200W
Es=600W
New Equilibrium:
16000-200W=600W
W=16000/800=20
Wage received by workers= $20
Wage paid by employer= $20+$10=$30
E**= 600*20= 12000
c. Deadweight loss=0.5*10*(15000-12000)= $15000
d. Tax share paid by employers= ($5/$10)*100= 50%
e. No, In real world employers will not pay 50% tax as supply is more inelastic than demand, so workers bear more burden of tax.
