Question 22 Refer to Figure 2  in Question 20. What price and quantity combination best represents the socially optimum price and number of concerts that should be organized? Group of answer choices P1 and Q0 P1 and Q1 P2 and Q0 P2 and Q1

Only typed answer and please don't use chatgpt    The inverse demand for leather is given by P = 50-0.5Q. The industry supply of leather is determined by its marginal cost: MC = 0.4Q. Unfortunately, the production of leather causes noxious chemical residue to leach into groundwater supplies. The external marginal cost caused by these residues grows with the amount of output, and is measured as EMC = 0.05Q.   1A. How many leather is produced in the free market if the externality is not corrected.   B) What is the free market price of the leather if the externality is not corrected?   C) What is the social marginal cost?

Assume a perfectly competitive market with no externalities. The demand curve is P =52 - 0.06×Qd. The supply curve is P =0.06×Qs. In equilibrium, what is total surplus?

Identify at least one positive externality from running a donut shop. Identify at least one negative externality from running a donut shop. Explain how these positive and negative externalities could impact the donut shop’s profits. (Hint: think subsidy for positive externality and tax for negative externality.) Draw two graphs that show the price of donuts before and after the positive and negative externality impacted the price of your donuts.

Some economists claim that early child care generates an external benefit to society. a. What is the market equilibrium? What is the socially optimal outcome? How do they differ? b. The government is planning to provide a per-unit subsidy for child care to achieve the socially optimal outcome. How large should this subsidy be? c. How much is the total government subsidy each month to reach a socially optimal outcome?

BN12.2 (d) (e) Case: The market for dry cleaning is reflected by the demand and supply curves (Q is in thousands): Pa = 5-Q Ps= 2 + 2Q Producing dry cleaning creates ground water pollution with a constant marginal external cost of 1.2. Question: (d) What is the equilibrium price and quantity if the government decides to impose a per-unit tax of $1.20 is added to dry cleaning? (e) Does the tax cause a Pareto improvement? (Use the definition of a Pareto improvement to justify the answer.)

O Macmillan Learning Specialized electronic batteries, such as those for laptops, are hard to dispose of safely, yielding excess pollution when one gets thrown away. Suppose that producing these batteries creates a social cost of approximately $150 per battery. Please shift the appropriate curve or curves to reflect this social cost.

When externalities cause markets to be inefficient (x) government action is sometimes needed to solve the problem. (y) private solutions can be developed to solve the problem. (z) there is a way to eliminate the problem of externalities in the market if producers are provided with the appropriate incentives to internalize the externality. Select one or more: a. (x), (y) and (z) b. (x) and (y) only c. (x) and (z) only d. (y) and (z) only e. (z) only
