EXPECT INCREASE IN PRICE OF COAL
New York reports that retail anthracite coal prices may rise about one cent per ton due to a Pennsylvania state tax. Dealers in the city see little chance of a raise before year end. The 244 percent levy at mines targets revenue of 2 to 4 million dollars, but economists warn the consumer ultimately bears the tax. The tax would translate to roughly 6 cents per ton for small coal and 8 to 10 cents for larger domestic sizes.
