In the tradeoff between economic output and environmental protection, what do the combinations on the protection possibility curve represent?
Consider the case of global environmental problems that spill across international borders as a prisoners dilemma of the sort studied in Monopolistic Competition and Oligopoly. Say that there are two countries, A and B. Each country can cheese whether to protect the environment, at a cost of 10, or not to protect it, at a cost of zero. If one country decides to protect the environment, there is a benefit of 16, but the benefit is divided equally between the two countries. If both countries decide to protect the environment, there is a benefit of 32, which is divided equally between the two centuries. In Table 12.10, fill in the costs, benefits, and total payoffs to the countries of the following decisions. Explain why, without some international agreement, they are likely to end up with neither country acting to protect the environment.
A nation with fixed quantities of resources is able toproduce any of the following combinations of carpet andcarpet looms:Yards of carpet(Millions)Carpet looms(Thousands)0 4512 4224 3636 2748 1560 0These figures assume that a certain number of previouslyproduced looms are available in the current period forproducing carpet.a. Using the data in the table, graph the ppf (with carpet onthe vertical axis).b. Does the principle of “increasing opportunity cost” holdin this nation? Explain briefly. (Hint: What happens tothe opportunity cost of carpet—measured in number oflooms—as carpet production increases?)c. If this country chooses to produce both carpet and looms,what will happen to the ppf over time? Why?Now suppose that a new technology is discovered thatallows an additional 50 percent of yards of carpet to beproduced by each existing loom.d. Illustrate (on your original graph) the effect of this newtechnology on the ppf.e. Suppose that before the new technology is introduced, thenation…
A certain economy consibt ing of the two sectors of goods and servicessupports a defense system that consumes $90 billion wort h of goods and$20 billion worth of services from the economy but does not contributeto economic production. Suppose that 50 cents worth of goods and 20cents worth of services are required to produce $1 wort h of goods andthat 30 cents worth of goods and 60 cents worth of services are requiredto produce $1 wort h of services. ·what must the total output of theeconomic system be to support this defense system?
Three roommates, Alan, Billy and Casey, are planning to spend the weekend in their dorm room watching old movies, and they are debating how many to watch. Table below indicates their willingness to pay for each movie: 1st movie 2nd movie 3rd movie 4th movie 5th movie Alan $20 $10 $0 $0 $0 Billy $30 $20 $10 $0 $0 Casey $50 $40 $30 $20 $10 Suppose the steaming fee is $40 per movie. How many movies should the roommates stream to achieve the most efficient outcome? Explain with the help of necessary calculations by utilizing the information in the above table.
Suppose instead of an emissions standard, the government implements atradeable permit system. Each firm is now given 3,000 permit each (1permit equals 1 ton of pollution allowed).How many permits will be traded between the 2 firms?

Kenji and Paolo are considering contributing toward the creation of a building mural. Each can choose whether to contribute $300 to the building mural or to keep that $300 for a new suit. Since a building mural is a public good, both Kenji and Paolo will benefit from any contributions made by the other person. Specifically, every dollar that either one of them contributes will bring each of them $0.70 of benefit. For example, if both Kenji and Paolo choose to contribute, then a total of $600 would be contributed to the building mural. So, Kenji and Paolo would each receive $420 of benefit from the building mural, and their combined benefit would be $840. This is shown in the upper left cell of the first table. Since a new suit is a private good, if Kenji chooses to spend $300 on a new suit, Kenji would get $300 of benefit from the new suit and Paolo wouldn't receive any benefit from Kenji's choice. If Kenji still spends $300 on a new suit and Paolo chooses to contribute $300 to the…
Review the numbers for Canada and Venezuelafrom Table 33.12 which describes how many barrelsof oil and tons of lumber the workers can produce. Usethese numbers to answer the rest of this question.a. Draw a production possibilities frontier for eachcountry. Assume there are 100 workers in eachcountry. Canadians and Venezuelans desire bothoil and lumber. Canadians want at least 2,000tons of lumber. Mark a point on their productionpossibilities where they can get at least 3,000tons.b. Assume that the Canadians specializecompletely because they figured out they havea comparative advantage in lumber. They arewilling to give up 1,000 tons of lumber. Howmuch oil should they ask for in return for thislumber to be as well off as they were with notrade? How much should they ask for if theywant to gain from trading with Venezuela? Note:We can think of this “ask” as the relative price ortrade price of lumber.c. Is the Canadian “ask” you identified in (b) alsobeneficial for Venezuelans? Use the…
Kara and Kyle are competing sockeye salmon fishers. Both have been allocated ITQs that limit their catch to 2,000 tons of sockeye salmon each. Kara's cost per ton is $6; Kyle's cost per ton is $10. If the market price of sockeye salmon is $14 per ton, what is the maximum amount Kara would be willing to pay per ton for Kyle's ITQs? Multiple Choice $6. $4. $8. $14.
2. What economic opportunity cost in COVID 19?
Suppose the government initially allocates the permits evenly, so that before trading begins each firm needed to reduce 60 tons of pollution each (120 tons total). How many tons of pollution will each firm reduce after permit trading (i.e. what is Q1and Q2)? Q1=__ ; Q2=___
