Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a tax is imposed on the sellers of a product, their costs increase. To cover those costs, sellers will increase the price of coffee, causing the price the buyer pays to rise. However, since the seller now faces higher costs, they may choose to pass on some of this burden to the buyer by reducing the price they receive, causing the price the seller receives to fall. So, ultimately, both prices will be affected, but the price paid by the buyer will increase while the price received by the seller will decrease, resulting in a rise in buyer price and a fall in seller price.
