A steel firm creates water pollution for a downstream fishery. The price and cost functions for steel and fish are as follows: Price of steel 30 Cost function for steel Csteel(s,x) 6s + 3s? – 20x + 2x² Price of fish 50 Cost function for fish Cfish(f,x) 20f+5f² + 14x +x? (a) How much steel (s), pollution (x) and fish (f) will the steel and fish plants produce if they are merged and act to maximize joint profit? (Maximise joint profit)
Firm 11 2 Initial Pollution Level 3 100 200 $20 $40 Above is tabulated the pollution level in tons for three different manufacturing firms, as well as their cost per ton of reducing pollution. The government has decided to limit total pollution to 300 tons, and distribute to each firm 100 permits, each allowing the firm to emit 1 ton of the pollutant. By how much would the total cost of the pollution reduction initiative be reduced if the firms are allowed to trade their permits, as opposed to not letting them trade them? Cost of Reducing Pollution by 1 Unit $10 300

At what level of emissions does the firm minimize total abatement cost? c) The firm faces an emissions charge of $100 per ton/month. What is the firm's total cost with optimal choice? d) If the firm faced an emissions charge of $150 per ton/month, at what level of emissions does the firm minimize total abatement cost? e) If a regulatory agency simply mandated that the firm could emit a maximum of 5 tons/month and there were no emission charges, what would be the firm's total cost? f) If the firm faced an abatement subsidy of $100 per ton/month, what level of emissions would a firm choose? g) If the firm faced an abatement subsidy of$100 per ton/month, what would be the…

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 Price

COURSE: MICROECONOMICS - TAX REGULATIONS The local diesel market is represented by Q = (912 - P)/12.5 and Q = (P - 315)/11where P is in dollars (USD) per liter of fuel and Q shows liters of fuel (in millions). Currently a tax of USD 130 per liter of diesel is charged.It is requested:(a) Calculate the amount (Q) that is transacted after the tax has been applied. Already solve few hours agob) Show in detail the calculations of a). Is there any difference between the price observed by suppliers and demanders? If so, what is the price observed by the producer and what is the price observed by the consumer? how much is the government's revenue? If there is an efficiency loss, how much is it? Already solve few hours agoc) At present, there are arguments in favor of increasing the tax on diesel and others in favor of decreasing it (at least temporarily). Mention at least ONE argument in favor of increasing this tax and ANOTHER argument in favor of decreasing it. And finally, conclude in…
