Consider the market for air conditioning units. The following graph shows the demand and supply for air conditioning units before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of air conditioning units in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. (?)

Given the supply - demand function of printers in Vietnam as follows:Sx = -20000 + 250PDx = 160000-350PKnowing that Vietnam is considered a small country, the price of a printer on the world market is $120/piece.a. If the Government of Vietnam levies an import tax of 25% on this item, calculate the loss to domestic consumers. How much is the import tax revenue from the Vietnamese government's printer products in this case?b. Due to the commitment to integration, the Government of Vietnam applies an import tax rate of 12.5% for printers, calculate the change in the import tax revenue of the Government of Vietnam.c. To ensure that there are no more imports, what is the minimum tax rate that the Vietnamese government should set?
