How to calculate tax revenue
Answer :-
Tax Revenue can be calculated by multiplying Size of the tax by the quantity sold.
R=TxQ
Tax revenue equals the area of the rectangle between the supply and demand curves.
If T is the size of the tax and Q is the quantity of the good sold, then TR = TxQ
We use the govt. tax revenue to measure the public benefit/ economic well-being
If we double the size of the tax, the base and height of the triangle double, so the deadweight loss rises by a factor of 4.
