TC TB 16 MG Current Current 12 MG 50 800 8 MG 150 1300 4 MG 500 1850 0 MG 1200 2000 A city currently emits 16 million gallons (MG) of raw sewage into a lake that is beside the city. The above table shows the total costs (TC) in thousands of dollars of cleaning up the sewage to different levels, together with the total benefits (TB) of doing so. Benefits include environmental, recreational, health, and industrial benefits. a. Using the table, calculate the marginal cost and marginal benefits of reducing sewage emissions for the city. b. What is the optimal level of sewage for the city? How can you tell?
A city currently emits 15 million gallons (MG) of raw sewage into a lake that is beside the city. Table 12.13 shows the total costs (TC) in thousands of dollars of cleaning up the sewage to different levels, together with the total benefits (TB) of doing so. Benefits include environmental, recreational, health, and industrial benefits. Using the information in Table 12.13 calculate the marginal costs and marginal benefits of reducing sewage emissions for this City. What is the optimal level of sewage for this city? How can you tell?
22. Both Wisconsin and Illinois border Lake Michigan. The lake is becoming polluted and both states are deciding whether or not to clean it. If Wisconsin decides to clean the fake it will cost 1200 and generate social benefits of 1500 however, Wisconsin will receive only 1100 of those social benefits while neighbor Illinois will receive the other 400. If Illinois cleans the lake, it will cost them 700 and generate social benefits of 900 â€" however, Illinois will receive only 600 of those benefits, Wisconsin will receive the remaining 300. If a state does not clean the lake, it experiences a cost of $0. If Wisconsin does not clean the lake and Michigan does then the payoffs will be
Question 17 Refer to Figure 3-1 in Question 16. Assume the situation starts as in the previous problem (Income=$100, price of pizza slice-$5, price of taco-$5). Now assume tortilla shortage arises which causes the price of a taco to increase from $5 to $10. 1. a) Will this price increase cause Tom's budget constraint to PIVOT (one intercept moves, the other doesn't) or SHIFT (both intercepts move)? [Select] 1. b) What bundle will he choose now? [Select]

Without government intervention Marginal social cost, marginal social benefit MSC of pollution MSB of pollution Quantity of pollution emissions (tons) O The outcome cannot be determined without more information Orms will continue to polute until the marginal benefit to them is $200 O firms will continue to pollute until the marginal benate to them is zero. O the quantity of pollution will be optimal.
