Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

Viewed at a point in time, beer taxation is regressive because the low-income people drink more beer as a percentage of their income than do higher income individuals. Viewed over a lifetime, however, beer taxation is probably progressive because a large amount of the beer consumption among low-income individuals during any period is among college students, who will, on average, have higher incomes over their lifetimes.
