Efficiency in the presence of externalitiesAir horns impose many external costs on society: the risk of being deafened, the annoyance of being awakened in the middle of the night, and so on.Therefore, the market equilibrium quantity of air horns is not equal to the socially optimal quantity. The following graph shows the demand for airhorns (their private value), the supply of air horns (the private cost of producing them), and the social cost of air horns, including both the private costand external costs.Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the market equilibrium quantity.

Greater consumption of alcohol leads to more motorvehicle accidents and, thus, imposes costs on peoplewho do not drink and drive.a. Illustrate the market for alcohol, labeling thedemand curve, the social-value curve, thesupply curve, the social-cost curve, the marketequilibrium level of output, and the efficient levelof output.b. On your graph, shade the area corresponding tothe deadweight loss of the market equilibrium.(Hint: The deadweight loss occurs because someunits of alcohol are consumed for which the socialcost exceeds the social value.) Explain.

Corrective taxes Tradable permits One way governments can charge firms for pollution rights is by imposing a per-unit tax on emissions. A tax (or price in this case) of S of chemicals emitted will achieve the desired level of pollution. (?) Now suppose the U.S. government does not know the demand curve for pollution and, therefore, cannot determine the optimal tax to achieve the desired level of pollution. Instead, it auctions off tradable pollution permits. Each permit entitles its owner to emit one ton of chemicals per day. To achieve the socially optimal quantity of pollution, the government auctions off 140…

Q^d= 9.5 - 2p Q^s= o.6p Tax. Suppose that the government imposes a tax equal to T = 0.50 which buyers must pay for every donut they purchase. (a) How does this tax change the supply and/or demand curve for donuts? (b) Solve for the new equilibrium price and quantity of donuts. Give the price paid by the buyer and the price received by the seller. (c) Draw a single supply and demand diagram that compares the equilibrium with and without the tax. Be sure to indicate the equilibrium quantity of donuts sold as well as the price paid by buyers and the price received by sellers in each case. On the same diagram, indicate the areas which represent consumer and producer surplus, tax revenue and the deadweight loss arising from this tax.
