5. Suppose that on a campus, girls' demand for an air freshener is P 10 - Q, and boys' demand is P = 10 - Q. The supply for the air freshener is P = 5+Q. (a) Suppose that the air freshener is a private good. Write down the combined demand of girls and boys for the air freshener. What would be the equilibrium quantity of air freshener traded? at what price? (b) Now suppose that the air freshener is a public good. Write down the combined demand of girls and boys for the air freshener. What would be the equilibrium quantity of air freshener traded? at what price?
4. Common resources versus private goods Outdoors season is underway in Maine, and Tiana and her cousins are planning a weekend fishing trip. They have the choice between fishing the lake near town where anyone is allowed to fish without a permit, or they could drive a short distance to a brook located on a family friend's property in the woods. Assume throughout the problem that all fish caught in either body of water are free for those fishing to keep. The fish in the private brook are considered and whereas the fish in the lake are and . In other words, the fish in the private brook are an example of , and the fish in the lake are an example of . Fishing in the lake will likely lead to because of which of the following reasons? All fishermen will choose to fish in the brook believing that there are more fish there. Nobody will enjoy fishing because of the lack of private contributions to the maintenance of the lake.…

5. Suppose that Capsule Corporation and Red Ribbon Company are producers of spaceships. In their production processes, each firm emits 50 units of pollution. Now, the government wants to reduce smoke emissions by 40% by issuing tradable permits. The cost of abatement of Capsule Corporation is Php 50 per unit of pollution, while the cost of abatement of Red Ribbon Company is Php 30. Suppose the tradable permits sell at Php 40 and the government allocates the permits equally between the two firms. a. If Red Ribbon Company sells 10 permits to Capsule Corporation, what is the total cost in achieving the goal of reducing emissions by 40%? Instead of using tradeable permits, the government regulates the firms by forcing them to emit 30 units of pollution each. What is the total cost of this policy? What policy is more efficient to implement, the tradeable permits or the government regulation? b. c.
1- Suppose, a polluting firm initially discharges 80tons of CO2 emissions into a fishery firm. Without liability law in place, it causes a total damage of say, $22,000 to the fishery. With liability law, it undertakes a scheme to reduce emissions from 80 tons to 50 tons where MAC=MD. But the scheme costs the polluting firm $ 4500. How much the polluting firm can save from the total damage now? Show with graph.
