Consider the market for cigarettes where the market demand is given by Q”(P) = 200 – P and the supply by QS(P) = 20 + 5P. Suppose that the consumption of cigarettes creates a health externality. The externality causes a marginal social loss of 6 per cigarettes. a) (3) What is the market equilibrium price and quantities? b) (3) Show graphically why the market equilibrium is not socially efficient. c) (4) Find the socially efficient level of output. d) (4)...

Consider the market for steel. Suppose that a steel
manufacturing plant dumps toxic waste into a nearby river, creating
a negative externality for those living downstream from the plant.
Producing an additional ton of steel imposes a constant external
cost of $330 per ton. The following graph shows the demand (private
value) curve and the supply (private cost) curve for steel.
Use the purple points (diamond symbol) to plot the social cost curve when the external cost is $330 per...

quantity of consumption
Consider the market for bolts. Suppose that a hardware factory
dumps toxic waste into a nearby river, creating a negative
externality for those living downstream from the factory. Producing
an additional ton of bolts imposes a constant external cost of $40
per ton. The following graph shows the demand (private value) curve
and the supply (private cost) curve for bolts.
