The local government removes a tax on the production of beer in Riverside in an effort to stimulate the economy. At the same time, UC Riverside students (beer consumers) return from Spring Break ready to party in the new quarter. Given these two effects, what can we say about the equilibrium price and quantity of beer in Riverside?
a. Equilibrium price will decrease, equilibrium quantity will increase.
b. Equilibrium quantity will decrease; the effect on price is ambiguous.
c. Equilibrium price will increase; the effect on quantity is ambiguous.
d. Eaulibaum ammtitv will increase: the effect on orice is ambiguous.

Equilibrium quantity will increase; Equilibrium price is ambiguous.

Explanation:

If the government removes a tax on the production of beer then as a result the producers of beer will increase their production level and this will increase the supply of beer in an economy. Therefore, there is a rightward shift in the supply curve of beer.

Simultaneously, the students are ready to party in the new quarter which indicates that the demand for beer increases. This will shift the demand curve for beer rightwards.

As a result of these shift in the demand curve and in the supply curve of beer, the equilibrium quantity of beer increases and the effect on equilibrium price of beer is ambiguous because that will be dependent upon the magnitude of the shift in the demand and supply curve.
