A new bridge is built in your area, which allows you to reach campus much faster. So, instead of making 25 trips per month, now you make 35 trips per month to campus. The time cost of the trip, along with the wear and tear cost of the car decline from $4.75 per trip (before the bridge was built) to $3.75 per trip by using the bridge. Draw your hypothetical demand curve for trips to campus and label these respective costs and trips. Evaluate the benefits in dollars per month using the bridge in terms of change in consumer surplus.

Data for this image are from Seattle. Two neighborhoods are highlighted: Normandy Park and the Central District. Many people that receive housing vouchers would like to move to areas with high opportunities for their children, but assume those areas are too expensive. How do Normandy Park and the Central District illustrate the idea of *opportunity bargains"? there is a trade-off between the cost of living and higher income growth for the children. for families living in the Central District, Normand Park is more expensive to live in and has…
Name: Name: Name: $/unit 25 1 Fertilizing Fish When farmers fertilize their fields, the nitrogen from the fertilizer can get washed into streams which then feed into larger rivers. This "runoff" can cause damage to ecosystems and reduce the number of fish that can be caught by fishermen farther downstream. 20 Who are the producers of fertilizer? Who are the consumers of fertilizer? Who are the third parties affected by the externality? The graph below shows the market for fertilizer where P=2+0.5Q, and P = 20 - Qd. The marginal external cost of fertilizer = Q. This means, for example, if 3 units of fertilizer are used then the last unit of fertilizer causes fishermen to suffer a $3 loss...however, they are worse off by $1 from the first unit and $2 from the second unit as well for a total welfare loss of $6. What is the equation for your new curve? Label the curves on the graph, indicating if they're S or D, private or social. Draw & label a new curve demonstrating the externality. 15…
