Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The deadweight loss equals .5  2  500  500. The deadweight loss occurs because the tax lowers the output from the competitive level. At the output level that occurs with the tax, consumers value the last unit of output by more than it costs to produce that unit.
