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..…
