Explain why, in a market with negative externality, too much
output (more than the efficient amount) is
produced and sold and positive externality, too little output (less
than the efficient amount) is produced and
sold. If you use a diagram in your answer, make that diagram large
and label all axes, curves, and points.

In the presence of a “negative externality,” the free market would: Provide more than the efficient amount of the good Provide less than the efficient amount of the good Cause trade to take place at a price of $0 None of the above answers are correct
Using a supply-demand diagram, illustrate a: a. negative externality b. Positive externality c. in which of the above would the market, if left alone, produce too much of the good?
true or false and why A competitive market with a negative eternally produces more output than is efficient.
When negative externalities exist in a market, equilibrium price will be less than the efficient output. equilibrium output will be less than the efficient output. equilibrium output will be greater than the efficient output. equilibrium output will be greater than the efficient price
2 (18 pts). Consider the market for oil A. Draw a market diagram for oil and make sure and label it completely. Show equilibrium price at $70 per barrel and equilibrium output at 19 million barrels per day. B. Fully explain why the market equilibrium output is efficient. C. Now, assume that burning oil creates global warming and a negative externality (social cost). Fully explain (using your diagram too) why the market equilibrium fails to allocate resources correctly. D. Recently,...
Typically a more Free market economist such as Milton Friedman would define an Externality as a consequence of ["a lack of well defined property rights", "well defined property rights", "too much government inaction", "too little government action"] and as such would prescribe a policy of ["fines", "compensation", "checks"] to those 3rd party individuals (The Coase Theorem) Whereas typically a more mainstream economist such as Krugman would define an Externality as a consequence of ["too little...
a. Draw a diagram illustrating the profit maximizing output for the monopolist with abnormal profit. The diagram should contain short-run average cost, average variable cost, short-run marginal cost, and marginal revenue curves and shade area that represents abnormal profit. Make your diagram large and label all curves, axes, and points. b. Why, in the case of a monopolist, is marginal revenue at any output less than output price? c. Why doesn't the abnormal profit of a monopolist, unlike that of...
