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 negative e dashed drop lines on the graph reflect the narket equilibrium price and quantity for this good. positive Shift one or both of the curves to reflect the presence of the externality. If the social cost of producing the good is not equal to the private cost, then you should shift the supply curve to reflect the social costs of producing the good; similarly, if the social value of producing the good is not equal to the private value, then you should shift the demand curve to reflect the social value of consuming the good.

Identify at least one positive externality from running a donut shop. Identify at least one negative externality from running a donut shop. Explain how these positive and negative externalities could impact the donut shop’s profits. (Hint: think subsidy for positive externality and tax for negative externality.) Draw two graphs that show the price of donuts before and after the positive and negative externality impacted the price of your donuts.
The demand and the supply of timber for construction in Australia are given byQD =100 – 20PQS = 5P Suppose there is a strike of loggers, which changes the supply toQS = 4P. Calculate the new equilibrium quantity and use a demand and supply graph to explain howthe strike affects the equilibrium price and quantity. After the strike in 2.6, suppose the government subsidizes the buyers s dollars for every unit theypurchase. Write the price paid by consumers in the equilibrium as a function of s. Would the governmentbe able to use the subsidy to achieve the surplus before the strike,. If no,explain why. If yes, what should be the value of s?

You are an economist in the Internal Revenue System and just heard of a plan to increase the sales tax on a certain widget by $.06. Last year customers purchased about 10 million widgets. The demand curve in the last year was such that a $.01 increasein price decreases sales by 100,000. A study showed that a $.01 increase in price resulted in producers willing to provide 50,000 more widgets to the market. Congress stated that this$.06 tax will increase government revenues by $600,000 and raise the price of each widget by $.06. Is this correct? If so, explain why this is the case and, if not, what is the increase in prices and revenues?
