Consider how or if the Coase Theorem can be applied to the following scenarios. (i.) My neighbor wants me to cut down an ugly shrub in my front yard. The ugly shrub imposes an external cost on her and on her property value. (ii.) A coal-red plant dumps its leftover hot water into the nearby lake, killing the naturally occurring fish. Hundreds of homes line the banks of the lake. (iii.) A coal-red plant dumps its leftover hot water into...
Need help on b-e. for a I got quantity=13 and price=48. Thanks! 2) Consider the following supply and demand schedule for steel. Pa 100-4Qd P-9+3 a. Calculate the market equilibrium price and quantity for steel. (4pts) b. Pollution from steel production is estimated to create an external cost of $14 per ton. Show the demand and supply schedule graphically and identify the external cost curve, market equilibrium, deadweight loss, and social optimum quant ity. (4pts) c. Assume there is no...
2. (Total: 15 pts) The following equations represent the inverse supply and demand functions in the market for Good A: PC = 80 - ½ QD PP = 14 + QS where PC and PP are the prices paid by consumers and received by producers respectively. QD and QS are the quantities demanded and supplied, respectively. Suppose the government is considering imposing a tax of $6 per unit of Good A. a) (2pts) Compute the competitive market equilibrium price and...
Consider a market supply and demand represented by the following: Qs = 4P – 120 and Qd = 1000 – 10P. Use this information to answer the following questions. Calculate equilibrium price and quantity. What is the consumer surplus? If the government imposes an excise tax of $2, what would be the new equilibrium price, quantity? What would happen to the consumer surplus?
5. Consider a market supply and demand represented by the following: Q. = 3P - 60 and la = 800 - 7P. Use this information to answer the following questions. SXZ a. Calculate equilibrium price and quantity. b. What is the consumer surplus? c. If the government imposes an excise tax of $3, what would be the new equilibrium price, quantity? d. What would happen to the consumer surplus?
Consider a market with demand and supply functions of the form: D:Q^D=28-4P^D S:Q^s=-2+P^s a. Graph and calculate the market equilibrium price and quantity. b. Graph and calculate the consumer surplus. c. Graph and calculate the producer surplus. d. Imagine the government imposes a $1 per unit tax on consumption of the good. Graph and calculate the deadweight loss of the tax.
2. Taxes and welfare Consider the market for designer purses. The following graph shows the demand and supply for designer purses before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of designer purses in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the...
2. Consider the following demand Qd = 140 - 3P and supply QS = 20 + 20P for lunch at the Trump Golf and Country Club. a. Draw the demand and supply curves and calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. b. The government has imposed a sales tax of $2 on restaurant meals. Show how the above market is affected, and the new equilibrium price and quantity. (calculation is necessary). Explain and illustrate how the consumer's welfare is affected. Specifically...
