The marginal benefit that Zach gets from each lighthouse is 90 - Q, where Q is the number of lighthouses. The marginal benefit that Jacob gets from each lighthouse is 40 - Q. 1. What is the efficient number of lighthouses? 2. What is Zach's marginal benefit of lighthouses at the efficient quantity? 3. Would Zach have been willing to pay for the last additional lighthouse at the efficient quantity? a) Yes b) No

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.

25. Suppose that there is a large farm and a large recreation firm located on a river. The farm is upstream of the recreational area. The farm uses the streamflow for irrigation. Let S be the amount of streamflow used by the farm and suppose its marginal benefit for irrigation is given by MB-5000-15S. Use of streamflow by the farm is costly to the recreational firm, though, because of lost opportunities for boating, fishing, and camping. Suppose this marginal cost is given by MC=5s. (a) Draw a sketch of the MB and MC curves for use of S by the farm. On your graph, show the efficient level of S by the farm. Solve for this amount from the equations. (b) If unregulated, the farm uses streamflow at a price of zero. Show on your graph what S this corresponds to. Solve for it from the equations. (c) If the government sets a tax price on streamflow, what tax price per unit of S will result in the farm using the efficient level of streamflow? Show on your graph and find with the equations.
