Suppose there are only two consumers in the market for a public good. The figure to the right shows marginal benefit lines for a public good for the two individuals, Andrew (A) and Brenda (B). Use the line drawing tool to draw and label the social marginal benefit line. Make sure that the line extends from quantity level 0 to 10 as the private marginal benefit lines do. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required object.

The market for perfume is characterized by: MPB=200-Q and MPC= 3Q with a marginal social benefit of -$12 caused by the others smelling the perfume. The externality is ______ and on the _____ side of the market. The inefficient quantity is ______ and the price is _____. The allocatively efficient quantity in the market is ______. If the government were to correct the externality, it would _______ the market by $______ per unit of perfume. Word Bank: negative, demand, 50, 150, 47, tax, 12, positive, supply, subsidy
There are three individuals in society, named A, B and C. The individuals' inverse demand curves for a public good are PA = 20 - 3Q, PB = 35 - 5Q and PC = 45 - Q, and the social marginal cost curve for the public good is given by SMC = Q. What is the optimal amount of the public good? a) 1 b) 9 c) answer 10 d) 100 , show me the method.
Please provide calculation and justification
Refer to the diagrams below in which figures (a) and (b) show demand curves reflecting the prices Alvin and Elmer are willing to pay for a public good, rather than do without it. If the marginal cost of the optimal quantity of this public good is $6, the optimal quantity must be: $12 10 Alvin (a) 4. 2. 4. $12 10 Elmer 6. 4. (b) 2.
According to marginal analysis, in a market that experiences a positive externality, the market (private) players would ________________________ to the socially optimal output level. A. over-produce an output level relative B. under-produce an output level relative C. exactly produce an output level equal
For public goods such as bus service, sewage services, power grids,water systems, roads, vaccines, education, law and order, reliableknowledge, and many others, the marginal cost of providing anamount q, MC(q), is positive but decreasing. Suppose that thedemand curve for the good is D(q), i.e. D(q) is societal willingnessto pay for the marginal unit of the public good at level q, D(q) 0and D0(q) < 0. This problem asks you to compare several methodsof deciding how much q to provide.(a) Produce using the competitive rule, p = MC(q). The solutionis denoted qcomp ∗ .(b) Produce as a Monopolist, i.e. solvemaxq≥0 qD(q) - C(q):The solution is denoted qMon ∗ .(c) Produce so as to maximize social surplus from the industry, i.e.solve the problemmaxq≥0 [CS(q) + qD(q)] - C(q);where CS(q) = R0q[D(x) - D(q)] dx is consumer surplus. Thesolution is denoted qISS ∗ .(d) Produce so as to maximize the total social surplus, i.e. solve theproblemmaxq≥0 [B(q) + CS(q) + qD(q)] - C(q);
What would be the solution?
Draw figures similar to the provided figure (i.e. producer curves in a perfectly competitive market including marginal social cost, marginal private cost, price) and show the deadweight losses associated with a) positive externalities b) negative externalities NOTE: take line p = 260 as the marginal benefit curve
Costs and Revenue MR MC D Quantity Based on the graph, you can answers. MR curve is defined as 20-2Q, MC curve is defined as 2Q, and Demand curve is definded as 20 - Q. What is the quantities that maximize a social benefit? Your answer should be 1 decimal points such as 2.1 or 3.1. Do not write ratio such as 10/3. Do not include $. Answer should be 200 instead of $200

The production of fabric generates toxic effluents related to the dyes used. This is typically disposed of with wastewater, which generates pollution. If the government does not intervene, the market for fabric has an equilibrium price of $250 per roll and an equilibrium quantity of 10,000 rolls. a.How would the socially optimal quantity of fabric compare to the free market equilibrium quantity of 10,000 rolls? Why? b. Using a supply and demand graph show the effect on social welfare of allowing the market for fabric to operate without government intervention. Label all the curves and relevant points on your graph. c. Would a government subsidy or tax help the market achieve the social optimum? Explain. Show the necessary subsidy/tax on your graph. d. Explain how this intervention helps achieve the social optimum and what information would be necessary to implement it.
