A large city currently provides free water service to residents. The marginal social cost of making a gallon of water available per month is estimated to be 5 cents no matter how much water is used. Currently, city residents consume 500,000 gallons of water per month. The costs of making the water available are financed by a local tax on city residents. a. Show the net gains in well-being possible by applying a user charge of 5 cents per gallon to residential users. Assume that monthly consumption declines to 400,000 gallons after the user charge is imposed. Calculate the tax revenues that can be freed for other uses each month (including a reduction in taxes to local residents) after the user charge is imposed.

(Quantitative Question) Suppose that a young couple has just had their first baby and they wish to insure that enough money will be available to pay for their child's college education. They decide to make deposits into an educational savings account on each of their daughter's birthday, starting with her first birthday till her 18th birthday.

[College: Project Cost-Benefit Analysis Course, Economic Questions] - Can someone please explain the steps on how to complete these problems? Thank you in advance A person dies and leaves an estate of $1,000,000, which is invested and earns 6% per year. Three children, aged 7, 10, and 14, survive the person.

Assume a society consists of two economic groups: one group is rich and the other group is poor. Suppose that 50 percent of the population is rich while the other 50 percent of the population is poor. Consider two scenarios. Scenario A: The rich have $60,000 each, while the poor have $2,000 each. Scenario B: The rich have $7,500 each, while the poor have $750 each. If you only care about average income and not about equity, you would prefer V. which has an average income of S (Enter your response to the nearest dollar.) Now suppose that you only care about equity or inequality. In this case, you would prefer which has a rich-to-poor ratio of (Round your response to one decimal place.) Finally, suppose you only care about living standards. In this case, you would prefer because it has lower poverty.
