Assume that the government places a $1 per pound tariff on imported coffee, which decreases the domestic quantity demanded of coffee by 100 million pounds and increases domestic production by 100 million pounds. Draw the rectangle that would represent the amount of tax revenue that the government would realize from this tax and calculate the dollar figure.
The amount of tax revenue would be represented by the black rectangle which is $300 million ($1 x 300 million pounds of imported coffee).
