True or false?
Other things equal, consumers would prefer to face a less elastic supply curve for a good or service when an excise tax is imposed.
This is true. A less elastic supply curve would not be affected as much by a tax. This means that consumers won't bear the burden of the tax as much as they would in the case of a very elastic supply curve.
