Assume that each gallon of gas consumed creates extra costs for the citizens of Iola in the form of congestion, noise, and pollution. Researchers from Allen Community College have estimated that the Marginal Social Cost of the consumption of gasoline is described by the following equation: Marginal Social Cost: P = 1 + 2 Q Graph the market. Be sure to fully and clearly label the graph, including: the Demand (D), the Marginal Private Cost (MPC), the Marginal Social Cost (MSC), the Private Equilibrium Quantity (Qpe), Private Equilibrium Price as (Ppe), the Socially Optimal Price (Ps), the Socially Optimal Quantity (Qs), and the Deadweight Loss (DWL).
Below is the the market demand curve for yard leaf cleaning when only the marginal private benefits (MPB) that the homeowners receive from the clean yard are taken into account. If the government provides a subsidy to yard cleaning companies, equal to $10 per yard, the demand curve will shift and become the same as the marginal social benefit curve (MSB). Move the demand curve to illustrate that. Provide your answer below: Supply 2- Demand 2 4 8 Number of yards (in hundreds) Price per yard (in tens)
Which of the following is true of market social equilibrium if third parties, people outside the market for a good, bear part of the cost of the good's production? Socially optimal quantity will be greater than the private quantity, and the socially optimal price will be greater than the private price. Socially optimal quantity will be less than the private quantity, and the socially optimal price will be greater than the private price. Socially optimal quantity will equal the private quantity, and the socially optimal price will equal the private price. Socially optimal quantity will be less than the private quantity, and the socially optimal price will be less than the private price. Socially optimal quantity will be greater than the private quantity, and the socially optimal price will be less than the private price.
The figure below shows the market for higher education. The market demand curve for higher education reflects only the marginal private benefit (MPB) that individuals receive. Since this is a market with positive externalities, suppose the government provides a subsidy to consumers of higher education (students) that is equal to the marginal social benefit (MSB) minus the marginal private benefit (MPB), in this case, $8, 000 per student. With the subsidy, the demand curve will shift and become the same as the marginal social benefit (MSB) curve. Move the demand curve below to illustrate this shift. Be sure to take the exact size of the subsidy into account. Precise answers are required.

Based on market research, a film production company in Ectenia obtains the following information about the demand and production costs of its new DVD:1 Demand: P = 1,000 – 10Q Marginal Revenue: MR = 1,000 – 20Q Marginal Cost: MC = 100 + 10Q a. Find the price and quantity that maximize the company’s profit. b. Find the price and quantity that would maximize social welfare. c. Use a graph to illustrate the DWL and calculate the dollar value of the DWL.
The figure below shows the market for driver education programs. The market demand curve for driver education reflects only the marginal private benefit (MPB) that individual drivers receive from the programs. Since this is a market with positive externalities, suppose the government provides a subsidy for driver education programs that is equal to the marginal social benefit (MSB) minus the marginal private benefit (MPB), in this case, $20 per driver. With the subsidy, the demand curve will shift and become the same as the marginal social benefit (MSB) curve. Move the demand curve below to illustrate this shift. Be sure to take the exact size of the subsidy into account. Precise answers are required. Also, make sure to position the point Social equilibrium correctly.

Suppose there are two residents in a neighborhood, and you know both of their demand curves for a public good. What would you have to do in order to figure out what the social demand curve? a-Subtract the demand of the person with the higher valuation of the public good from the demand of the person with the lower valuation of the public good b-Add their demand curves together c-Multiply the two demand curves together d-Subtract the demand of the person with the lower valuation of the public good from the demand of the person with the higher valuation of the public good
Suppose that a vaccine is developed for a highly contagious strain of flu. The likelihood that anyone will get this flu decreases as more people receive the vaccine.

Greater consumption of alcohol leads to more motor vehicle accidents and, thus, imposes costs on people who do not drink and drive. The following graph shows the market for alcohol. Determine whether the private and social values are equal in this case. If they are not, shift the demand curve in the appropriate direction to reflect this difference. Then determine whether the private and social costs are equal in this case. Again, if they are not, shift the supply curve to reflect this difference.
