Suppose the marginal costs of reading are constant at $6 per hour, while the marginal benefits of reading decline (over time) as more reading is performed. In particular, suppose the following table contains the marginal benefit associated with various levels of hours spent reading. Time Spent Reading (Hours) Marginal Benefits (Dollars per hour) Assume the marginal benefit curve is a straight line through the two points described in the table On the following graph, use the blue points (circle symbol)...

Parks confer many external benefits on society: open space, trees that reduce pollution, and so on.
4. Efficiency in the presence of externalities Parks confer many external benefits on society: open space, trees that reduce pollution, and so on. Therefore, the market equilibrium quantity of parks is not equal to the socially optimal quantity. The following graph shows the demand for parks (their marginal private benefits), the supply of parks (the marginal private costs of producing them), and the marginal social benefits of parks, including both the marginal private benefits and external benefits.Use the black point (plus...

Suppose Kate gives haircuts on Saturdays to make extra money. She is the only person in town cutting hair on Saturdays and therefore has some market power. Assume that she does not incur fixed costs, and the only significant variable cost to Kate is her time. As she gives more haircuts, Kate must increasingly forgo other valuable Saturday activities. For example, if she gives one haircut, she forgoes reading the paper after breakfast. If she gives two haircuts, she gives...
