4. Suppose the supply curve of portable radio rentals in Golden Gate Park is given by P= 5+ 0.1Q and the demand curve is by P = 20 -0.2Q. a. If each portable radio imposes $3 per day in noise costs on others, by how much will the market equilibrium quantity exceed the socially optimal number of rentals? b. How would the imposition of a $3 per unit tax affect the efficiency in this market?
3. Now reconsider the issue of soybeans from the perspective of Chinese consumers. Assume you are a Chinese consumer who drinks soymilk each day. Demonstrate using a graph how your consumption of soymilk differs from the socially optimal level. Is the price you pay for soymilk in current market conditions the correct amount, too high, or too low? Why? Ensure that you label your graph correctly (all curves, axes, price and quantities labeled). Show the deadweight loss of soymilk consumption, and what price should be charged for soymilk to move the amount of soymilk you drink to the optimal level.

Externalities - Definition and examples An externality arises when a firm or person engages in an activity that affects the wellbeing of a third party, yet neither pays nor receives any compensation for that effect. If the impact on the third party is adverse, it is called a ___________ externality. The following graph shows the demand and supply curves for a good with this type of externality. The dashed drop lines on the graph reflect the market equilibrium price and quantity for this good.
8. Q Explain what is meant by the term “market failure" by giving two major types of such failures. A (Market failure) is a situation where the competitive market system on its own would either (1) produce the "wrong" amount of certain goods and services as is the case where there are external costs or benefits (i.e., externalities), or (2) fail to allocate any resources to the production of certain goods and services referred to as "( public goods )". 9. ) Refer to the question 8 above and explain the reasons behind each type of failure. Where negative externalities exist, the market system without any intervention will allow some of the costs of private production or consumption to "spill over" onto third parties. There is no market incentive to absorb all of the costs of production if there is a way to get someone else to pay for them. • In such cases of negative externalities, the market cost and price of the product will be too (low high) and thus the quantity produced too ( low ,…
