A confectioner and a music producer shares the same building. The confectioner uses machines while the music producer's productivity increases if there is less noise. The table below shows the benefits to the confectioner and the music producer. For example, if the confectioner installs an additional machine, her benefits increases to $100 while the benefits of the music producer reduces to $40. Coase argued that private solutions to externalities is possible between parties, is the confectioner wants to install the new machinery and noone has property rights, what is the maximum compensation possible? Enter your answers without any decimals. Benefits Вепefits Current Machine New Machine Confectioner 60 100 Music Producer 70 40
There is a road between the suburbs and downtown. The road is congested at rush hour, so each. additional driver slows all of the other drivers down. In this question, we will calculate the cost of this negative externality. For simplicity, ignore all of the costs of using the road other than the cost of time. Assume that people value their time at $6 per hour (that is, $0.10 per minute). If 121 people use the road at rush hour, the trip takes 37 minutes. If one additional person enters the road, everyone would have to slow down and the trip would take one more minute for everyone. What is the monetary value of the time-loss that the additional driver imposes on the other drivers already on the road? * (Round your response to 1 decimal place, and do not include a dollar sign.)
Which of the following is NOT a possible way of solving an externality problem of electricity production using coal? A. A quota of electricity production using coal exactly equal to the production level in the socially optimal allocation. B. A ban on coal burning, in order to force the use of alternative energy sources. C. Issue trading rights to burn coal for electricity production, and let a market decide the clearing price for those rights. D. A per-unit tax on the electricity price equal to marginal external cost of burning coal at the socially efficient allocation.

Question 39 Which of the following is true of a negative externality? The government can use subsidies to encourage firms to internalize the externality.

Describe a situation where you experienced a positive or negative externality or free-riding by you or someone else. Why are these situations problematic?
Give an example of a negative externalitity and a positive externality
suggest a potential solution to that student's problem. How would you internalize their externality or dissuade the free riding? A time I have experienced negative externality would be air pollution. The wild-fires in Canada have caused a tremendous amount of air pollution (smoke), while these fires are 'controlled' they have gotten out of hand and aren't benefiting the public. The smoke has created an unhealthy air level and can in some cases cause death, going outside I can clearly see the smoke that has traveled and I can smell it. Some of my friends have to stay inside because of health conditions, although it was meant to prevent a larger fire it has created a larger problem as it has gotten out control. This is problematic because there's almost no way of clearing up the smoke and people who will suffer from its outcome will not receive any compensation. It will also effect wild-life and plants, it will be hard to reverse the effects of this fire and the harm it has done. With…
