Hmm, let me think this through. If the producers have to pay a tax, that means their costs go up, right? So, the supply curve shifts to the left. Gotta be option D!

D has got to be the correct answer. When producers have to pay a tax, it's like adding a weight to their supply, making them less willing to produce. Classic stuff!

This seems like a straightforward application of the basic principles of supply and demand. The supply curve should shift to the left, as the producers have to pay a tax, reducing their willingness to supply the commodity.
