1. Brazilian rain forests reduce global air pollution and support biodiversity. Rain forests are being cut down to support expanded production of beef for export to the US and other countries. 1. Concisely describe the market failure that leads Brazil to reduce the size of its rain forest. 2.Graph the market for beef in the US showing both the unregulated and efficient outcome. 3.In the efficient market, the negative externalities of deforestation are factored into the market price, which leads to a lower quantity of beef produced (Q2) and a higher price (P2) than in the unregulated market. 4.Explain how a tax on beef in the US would impact the price and quantity of beef and the quantity of air pollution. Graph the market for beef with a tax and discuss if/how efficiency changes after the tax. 5.A second proposal is to subsidize the development of meat substitutes (e.g. Beyond Beef, Impossible Meat, etc). Graph the impact of the entry of meat substitutes on the market for…

4. Externalities - Definition and examples An externality arises when a firm or person engages in an activity that affects the well-being of a third party, yet neither pays nor receives any compensation for that effect. If the impact on the third party is beneficial, it is called a externality. The following graph shows the demand and supply curves for a good with this type of externality. The dashed drop lines on the graph reflect the market equilibrium price and quantity for this good. Shift one of the curves to reflect the presence of the externality. If there are external costs of production, then you should shift the supply curve to reflect the social costs of producing the good; similarly, if there are external benefits from production, then you should shift the demand curve to reflect the social benefits from consuming the good. PRICE (Dollars per unit) QUANTITY (Units) Supply Demand O Demand -- Supply ? With this type of externality, in the absence of government intervention,…

4. Understanding different policy options to correct for negativeexternalities Carbon dioxide emissions have been linked to melting of sea ice. The following table lists some potential regulations targeting the amount of airborne carbon dioxide. For each policy listed, identify whether it is a command-and-control policy (regulation), tradable permit system, corrective subsidy, or corrective tax. Tradable Permit System Public Policy The government limits total carbon-dioxide emissions by all factories to 260,000 tons per five years. Each individual factory is given the right to emit 230 tons of carbon dioxide, and factories may buy and sell these rights in a marketplace. Trees take carbon dioxide out of the air and convert it to oxygen, so the government funds a tree-planting initiative by offering $440 to any citizen who plants a tree. The government orders every factory to adopt a new technology, which reduces carbon-dioxide emissions into the atmosphere. The government charges…
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?
