Tips laxes and welfare 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 graan point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple paint (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. 8 8 8 8 8 2 3 2 : 30 Demand Supply Before Tax 140 200 450 590 700 340 80 1120 1200 1430 QUANTITY (Air conditioners +.
