Now it is past July 2019 and the market has changed. The gasoline tax is in place for all Illinois gasoline stations. In addition to the gasoline tax increase, Illinois dealers on average are noticing that many of their customers are going across the border to buy gasoline in Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri and Indiana. Not all customers can do this, as they live far from a border. But there is a clear impact on the market for Illinois gasoline producers. Build a graph showing the impact of the Illinois gas tax increase and the shift of some Illinois consumers to border state gas stations, clearly indicating any shifts in the demand and/or supply curves and the resulting equilibrium Price and Quantity. Provide a narrative explaining the shifts.
