In his 1960 article, "The Problem of Social Cost," Ronald Coase uses an example of a rancher and a wheat farmer. The problem comes from the rancher's cows crossing over onto the farmer's fields and trampling his crop. For the next problems assume the damage to the farmer's crops is $1,000 a year and the cost of putting up/maintaining a fence is $1,500 a year. 1. The farmer takes the rancher to court and the judge decides putting up a fence is the farmer's responsibility. What is the nature of the externality in this problem? A. the rancher is putting a $1000 cost on the farmer that he is not internalizing. B. the farmer is putting a $1000 benefit on the rancher that is not internalized. C. the rancher is putting a$1500 cost on the farmer that he is not internalizing. D. there is no externality present because rights are defined. 2. After the court decision, will the farmer build a fence? A. Yes B. No C. The rancher will build the fence D. There is not enough information to say 3..…
5 ranchers use a grassland to feed their cows. The ranchers must choose how many cows to raise. The benefit of raising a cow for a rancher is 100-5G is the total quantity of cows using the per cow, where G grassland. The marginal cost of raising a cow is 10. Hence, the net benefit of raising cows for: any rancher is (100-5G)g - 10g, where is the quantity of cows raised by the rancher. What is the total number of cows using the grassland, implied by the Nash Equilibrium? 12 О 75 15 9
Asap plz... Use a diagram and explain how the total net benefit will be changed if an externality exists in a market
ASAP plz Why don't people/stores make different decisions? Cost is a factor: a case of foam take-out containers costs $25, compared with $58 for paper and recyclable-plastics. How does this affect the firm's profit? Are consumers willing to pay more? Negative externality Consider the demand and supply given above. Suppose there is an external cost given by MEC=5Q. Find social equilibrium price and quantity. Draw a graph and label both private and social equilibrium.
A local school administrator observes an increase in the number of flu cases in the public schools over the last two years. She is concerned that some families cannot afford flu vaccine and are therefore not having children vaccinated. She is also concerned that the failure to vaccinate some children is putting other children at risk, so she proposes that the state subsidize vaccines to increase coverage rates. a. Determine whether the failure to vaccinate some children is an external benefit or an external cost. If an external cost is present, move point A and point B to show the marginal social cost curve. If an external benefit is present, move point A and point B to show the marginal social benefit curve. Place point C at the equilibrium outcome. Place point D at the socially optimal outcome. Flu vaccines A B D Supply (marginal private cost) Price

a. Draw a graph showing the market for ride-hailing services in midtown Manhattan before the congestion fee was imposed. Indicate the efficient equilibrium quantity and the market equilibrium quantity
The town has a kayak rental and visitors use the lake for recreation. The town also has a chemical lab that dumps industrial waste into the lake. This pollutes the lake and makes it a less desirable vacation destination. That is, the chemical lab's waste decreases the kayak rental's economic profit. Suppose that the chemical lab could use a different production method that involves recycling water. This would reduce the pollution in the lake to levels safe for recreation, and the kayak rental would no longer be affected. If the chemical lab uses the recycling method, then the chemical lab's economic profit is $900 per week, and the kayak rental's economic profit is $2,600 per week. If the chemical lab does not use the recycling method, then the chemical lab's economic profit is $1,600 per week, and the kayak rental's economic profit is $1,500 per week. These figures are summarized in the following table. Complete the following table by computing the total profit (the chemical lab's…
K The graph illustrates the unregulated market for pesticide. When the factories produce pesticide, they also create waste which they dump into a lake on the outskirts of a small town. The marginal external cost of the dumped waste is equal to the marginal private cost of producing pesticide (that is, the marginal social cost of producing the pesticide is double the marginal private cost). What is the quantity of pesticide produced if no one owns the lake and what is the efficient quantity of pesticide? What is the deadweight loss? *** If no one owns the lake, the quantity of pesticide produced is 30 tons a week. The efficient quantity of pesticide is 20 tons a week. If no one owns the lake, the deadweight loss is $ >>> Answer to 2 decimal places. a week. 1260 1080- 900- 720- 540- 360- 180- 0- 0 Price (dollars per ton) | 4 S D 30 60 90 120 150 180 210 240 270 300 Quantity (tons of pesticide per week) Q P
