Airports generate many negative externalities including noise, air and water pollution, traffic and habitat loss. On the other hand, airports generate many economic benefits to local economies and provide a useful form of transport for residents of the areas where they are built.

Suppose the demand for a product is P = 400 - 0.25 Q and the supply of the product is P = 100 +0.75 P where Q is output and P is price. Suppose also that the marginal external cost (MEC) from production is constant and equal to 50$ per unit. What is the competitive (private) efficient level of output? What is the socially efficient level of output?
Large taxes on energy companies whose production activities cause environmental damage. How does this negative externality affect the allocation of resources? List three things. Include pigovian taxes and marginal costs.
Consider a lake found in the town of Center Barnstead, and then answer the questions that follow. The town has a campground whose visitors use the lake for recreation. The town also has a fish cannery that dumps industrial waste into the lake. This pollutes the lake and makes it a less desirable vacation destination. That is, the fish cannery's waste decreases the campground's economic profit. Suppose that the fish cannery could use a different production method that involves recycling water. This would reduce the pollution in the lake to levels safe for recreation, and the campground would no longer be affected. If the fish cannery uses the recycling method, then the fish cannery's economic profit is $1,500 per week, and the campground's economic profit is $1,800 per week. If the fish cannery does not use the recycling method, then the fish cannery's economic profit is $2,000 per week, and the campground's economic profit is $1,000 per week. These figures are summarized…

What is the Socially Optimal Level of Z(Zopt)? Answer: From 0-2 MSB = [(3- Z)+(4- 2Z) + (11- Z)] = [(3+ 4+ 11)-(Z+2Z+Z)] = 18-4Z From 2-3 MSB=(3- Z) + (11- Z) = [(3 + 11)-(Z+Z)] = 14-2Z From 3-10-MSB = 11 - Z @11MSB=0
