Write down a model of positive production externality with two firms, in which theproduction activities of one firm directly affects the production/cost of the other firm.State and explain the key assumptions of the model. Using the model, answer thefollowing questions:(a) Explain why the presence of a positive production externality could prevent therealisation of an efficient outcome.(b) Name a possible cure for the positive production externality and explain how itcould solve the inefficiency problem.

50 – QD, and the supply of anchovy Suppose that demand for anchovy pizza is given by PD pizza is given by PS = QS. Anchovy pizza smells bad. The bad smell imposes an external cost on anyone near the pizza equal to $5 per pizza. What is the formula for the marginal cost to society of anchovy pizza? O 55 - Q O 5 + Q O Q- 5 O 45 - Q
Demand BA Quantity Refer to Externality graph above. Point A is the current equilibrium level of output of this product and point B is the socially optimal level of output for the society. S is the supply curve that includes private costs. St is the supply curve that includes public costs. The graph indicates that there is (arc): O a. positive externalities from product production. O b. spillover costs from the production of this product. Oc. spillover benefits to the production of this product. O d. an underallocation of resources to product production. Price %24
Consider a manufactured good whose production process generates pollution. The demand for the product is Q=100-3P. The market supply function is Q=P. The marginal external cost is MEC=2Q. What is the emissions tax that needs to be imposed to achieve the social optimum? Illustrate on graph What is the economic incidence of this emissions tax? In other words, what proportion of this tax will be paid by producers of this product and what proportion of the tax will be paid by consumers?

The government is considering regulating a market that causes externalities on other producers and/or consumers. The government will charge a Pigouvian tax t equal to the marginal external cost of production: a) Indicate the benefit (reduction in deadweight loss) that occurs. due to the tax. b) What is the change in consumer surplus, producer surplus, government surplus and the overall social surplus from imposing the regulation?
Answer this for me mate. Much appreciated.
