A firm produces locally made rain jackets for households. The table shows the firm's activity in one week before and one week after households began buying more rain jackets.
| Week | Rain jackets bought by households | Rain jackets produced by the firm | Government tax revenue linked to the firm's activity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Before the increase | 2,400 | 2,400 | £7,200 |
| After the increase | 3,200 | 3,200 | £9,600 |
Using the information in the table, explain how the three main economic groups are interdependent and suggest one likely effect on the government if household purchases fall to 1,600 rain jackets in the following week.
