Air pollution creates a negative externality—a cost suffered by a third party as a result of an economic transaction. A standard solution to a negative externality is a Pigouvian tax, a tax that raises the marginal private cost of pollution emissions to the level of the marginal social cost. The socially optimal quantity of pollution emissions is then determined by the intersection of the marginal private benefit, or demand, curve and the marginal social cost curve. The article notes that "putting a dollar value on the benefits of cleaner air has been difficult." Assuming this problem has been resolved, in the accompanying diagram, move the endpoints of line Smarginal social cost to show the marginal social cost curve. Then move the line labeled "Tax" to show the amount of the tax needed to limit emissions to the socially optimal level.
Price of a vaccination $140 Supply 110 75 D, marginal social benefit D= marginal private benefit 550 800 Quantity of vaccinations Refer to the Externality graph above. Government could increase the quantity of vaccinations by: O a. subsidizing the producer to provide the vaccinations. O b. subsidizing the consumer to receive the vaccinations. Oc. Government provides the good or service altogether. O d. none of the above. O e. A, B, and C.
In the film, The Dark Water 2019, Ducont a huge chemical firm dumps it's waste in air, land and water knowing it's has harmful effects to humans and animal. In reference to the firm answer the set of questions below: (a) What is the cause of the externality in the 2019 film The Dark Water? Determine whether the Coase theorem applies in the film, if not, what results in the theorem breaking down?
Demand BA Quantity Refer to Externality graph above. Point A is the current equilibrium level of output of this product and point B is the socially optimal level of output for the society. S is the supply curve that includes private costs. St is the supply curve that includes public costs. The graph indicates that there is (arc): O a. positive externalities from product production. O b. spillover costs from the production of this product. Oc. spillover benefits to the production of this product. O d. an underallocation of resources to product production. Price %24
When does a subsidy that benefits consumers result in a more efficient allocation of a resource? A when the good being produced or consumed is not scarce B when the good being produced or consumed generates a negative externality when the good being produced or consumed generates a positive externality D when the equilibrium price of the good is one that consumers don't like
1. Externalities - Definition and examples An externality arises when a firm or person engages in an activity that affects the wellbeing of a third party, yet neither pays nor receives any compensation for that effect. If the impact on the third party is adverse, it is called a v externality. The following graph shows the demand and supply curves for a good with this typé of externality. The dashed drop lines on the graph reflect the market equilibrium price and quantity for this good. Adjust one or both of the curves to reflect the presence of the externality. If the social cost of producing the good is not equal to the private cost, then you should drag the supply curve to reflect the social costs of producing the good; similarly, if the social value of producing the good is not equal to the private value, then you should drag the demand curve to reflect the social value of consuming the good.
By imposing a tax on the production of electricity equal to the cost of acid rain, the government will cause electric utilities to internalize the externality. As a consequence, the cost of the acid rain will become a OA. social cost borne by the public, and the demand curve for electricity will shift down. OB. social cost borne by the public, and the demand curve for electricity will shift up. C. private cost borne by the utilities, and the supply curve for electricity will shift down. D. private cost borne by the utilities, and the supply curve for electricity will shift up. Question Viewer

WHY SHOULD OTHER PECPLE BENEFIT FROM MY HARD WORK? 1994 Wateron De tyh e d Figure 1 Figure 1 shows how Calvin carefully avoids creating a positive externality (think of this as the equivalent of a factory applying a filter to eliminate any polluting emissions). Assume that this way of snow shovelling does not create any additional costs for Calvin (no extra effort and he has no plans to return home any time soon). b) As creating positive externalities leads to a social problem (see question a), and Calvin's way of snow shovelling avoids creating positive externalities, does Calvin's behaviour imply an efficiency improvement from a social point of view? Explain.
