In which case would tax burden fall primarily on consumers


Problem

Mayor George Henry has a problem. He doesn't want to anger voters by taxing them because he wants to be re-elected, but the town of Gapville needs more revenue for its schools. He has a choice between taxing tickets to professional basketball games or food. If the demand for food is relatively inelastic while the supply is relatively elastic, and if the demand for professional basketball games is relatively elastic while the supply is relatively inelastic, in which case would the tax burden fall primarily on consumers? In which case would the tax burden fall primarily on producers?

The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
