Since P>MC for an oligopoly, the output effect is that selling one more unit at the sales price will increase profit.The price effect is that an increase in production will increase the total amount sold, which will decrease the price and decrease the profit on all other units sold.If the output effect is greater than the price effect, the owner will increase production.If the price effect is greater than the output effect, the owner will not increase production (and may even decrease production).Oligopolists will continue to increase or decrease production until these marginal effects balance.
taxes indirectly decrease Y, it does this by decreasing consumption
The effect of increased resources in a production possibility frontier, or PPF, is an imbalance in the graph. Since a PPF is created based on set production factors, the results of the graph would be skewed with an increase in resources unless other production factors were increased accordingly.
Overall demand decreases reducing the incentive for producers to increase production
Taxes can decrease the supply when they are raised and increase the supply when they are lowered. Subsidies, on the other hand, can raise the supply when raised and lower the supply when they are lowered.
