Consider a town in which only two residents, Van and Amy, own wells that produce water safe for drinking. Van and Amy can pump and sell as much water as they want at no cost. For them, total revenue equals profit. The following table shows the town's demand schedule for water. Price (Dollars per gallon) 3.60 3.30 3.00 2.70 2.40 2.10 1.80 1.50 1.20 0.90 0.60 0.30 Quantity Demanded (Gallons of water) 0 35 70 105 140 175 210 245 280 315 350 DOE Total Revenue (Dollars) 0 $115.50 $210.00 $283.50 $336.00 $367.50 $378.00 $367.50 $336.00 $283.50 $210.00 2115 FA

While at DG you compare some paper towels options. The first option is a roll of towels that contains 43 sq. ft. of paper at a price of $1.75. The second option contains 67.3 sq. ft. of paper at $2.00. Which is the better choice?             One of the problems with K-12 education in the U.

From an economic perspective, is it sound policy to pursue a goal of zero pollution? Why or why not?   Can extreme levels of pollution hurt the economic development of a high-income country? Why or why not?   How can high-income countries benefit from covering much of the cost of reducing pollution created by low-income countries? The table below shows the supply and demand conditions for a firm that will play trumpets on the streets when requested. Qs1 is the quantity supplied without social costs. Qs2 is the quantity supplied with social costs. How does accounting for the externality affect the equilibrium price and quantity?

Suppose that you are in charge of a toll bridge over the Mississippi River. The demand for bridge crossing Q is given by the following: 2P = 20 - Q a) How many people would cross the bridge if there were no toll? (YOU MUST SHOW YOUR WORK TO RECEIVE CREDIT) b) The toll bridge operator is considering setting up a price of $5.00. At that price, how many people will cross the bridge? (YOU MUST SHOW YOUR WORK TO RECEIVE CREDIT) c) How many people would cross the bridge if the toll is set at $10.00? (YOU MUST SHOW YOUR WORK TO RECEIVE CREDIT)

Consider the competitive market for production of a chemical as shown in the diagram below. This setup will apply to this question and the next two questions. P ($/gallon) Demand: P=220-Q/100 0 Supply: P = Q/400 Q (gallons) Production of this chemical produces noxious odors that impact the health of the communities surrounding the production facilities. It is well known that every gallon produced increases health costs in society, but there is a lot of argument over how much health costs increase. In reality the number is that health costs increase by $3 per gallon produced, but that it hard to discover. If the government does not intervene in this market, what will be the total surplus for society in this market (including the $3 per gallon health costs)? Please do not round at any step of any calculation. Do not round your final answer.
