The external marginal cost of producing the product is MCExternal = 6Q, and the internal cost is MCInternal = 14Q. Instruction: Round your answers to the nearest two decimal places. a. What is the socially efficient level of output? units b. Given these costs and market demand, how much output would a competitive industry produce? units c. Given these costs and market demand, how much output would a monopolist produce? units d. Which of the following are actions the government could take to induce firms in this industry to produce the socially efficient level of output. Instructions: You may select more than one answer.

- Which statement about externalities is wrong? O Markets are typically not efficient in dealing with externalities O Externalities can be positive or negative O A firm naturally takes into account negative externalities that result from their production O Interventions such as carbon taxes can help correct externalities gative externalities imply that the social cost is high than the internal (or private) costarrow_forward500 450 The graph on the right may help in answering question 25 400 350 300 250 200 150 100 50 O 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 Quantity Demand MC Exter nality MC private MC Social A competitive tire manufacturing industry spews emissions into the air at47 per tire a marginal cost of 1.5-q, where q is the quantity of tires produced per month (in thousands). The industry marginal cost, excluding the cost of emissions (private marginal cost), is 4 + 4•q, expressed in $ per tire. The inverse demand curve for tires is p = 480 - 3-q, also expressed in $ per tire. In order to achieve the socially efficient level of tire production, which takes into account the optimal level of air pollution, the government levies a tax on the industry. What is the efficient pollution tax? $84 per tire $101 per tire $152 per tire Pricearrow_forwarddo fastarrow_forward
- According to economists what is the optimal amount of pollution? O a. The optimal amount of pollution is where private costs equal social costs O b. Pollution should be reduced to a level as determined by government regulation O c. None, the goal is to completely eliminate pollution d. The point where the marginal benefit from further pollution reduction equals the marginal cost of further reductionarrow_forwardNote:- Do not provide handwritten solution.

- Refer to the below competitive market diagram for product Z. Assume that the current market demand and supply curves fo substantial positive externalities associated with the production of Z, it can be argued that: B 0 Multiple Choice O SA G 52 D₁ D2 an output smaller than G would improve resource allocation. an output greater than G would result in a more efficient allocation of resources. government should levy a per unit excise tax on Z to shift the demand curve toward D₁.
