(b) What is the socially…Consider the market for flu vaccines, in which consumption causes positive externalities by creating herd immunity. Quantity supplied is given by Qs=2+2*P Marginal Private Benefit (determines individual demand of consumers of the vaccine i.e. the benefit from not getting sick) is given by Qd=60.5-2.5*MBP. Marginal Social Costs (MPC plus the benefits of externalities) is given by Qd=69.5-2.5*MSB. Plot these 3 curves on a graph with 6 points at P=11,12,13,14,15,16. What is the deadweight loss if only free-market forces are at play (i.e. externalities are not considered by the consumers)? How much should the subsidy be to bring the market to efficient equilibrium?Public Goods. Suppose a neighborhood in Segovia’s central business area is deciding how many fountains they want to see in the main avenue. There is a first group of 20 neighbors and each has a demand Q = 20 − P for fountains. There is a second group of 5 people, and each has a demand Q = 20 − 2P for fountains. The cost of building each fountain is 225. How many fountains are socially optimal? Fountains are public goods. Hint: To obtain the SMB, please first transform the demand functions into “public goods’ valuations” (“isolate P”) and then multiply them by the amount of neighbors per group. Then you can proceed with the vertical summation.
- Q=100-P Costs $6 to purchase a pack of cigarettes each pack smoked does $6 worth of health damage and $5 worth of secondhand health damage All consumers are aware of these costs 1. Due to an introduction of a hyper-effective tobacco fertilizer, the cost of producing a pack of cigaretts decreases to $1. How does this affect the level of smoking and the level of social loss? 2. suppose the government decides to pursue a Pigovian solution to eliminte social loss. What sort of of tax or subsidy would they implement and what is the resulting quantity of cigarette packs purchased? 3. In the case of the Coase Theorem, it is said that the socially efficient level of smokeing will occur without government intervention. how are property rights established and why might the Coase Theorem not apply in this setting?Suppose that flu shots create a positive externality equal to $10 per shot. Further suppose that the government offers a $7-per-shot subsidy to producers. What is the relationship between the equilibrium quantity and the socially optimal quantity of flu shots produced? Group of answer choices They are equal. The equilibrium quantity is greater than the socially optimal quantity. The equilibrium quantity is less than the socially optimal quantity. There is not enough information to answer the question.Consider two ways of protecting elephants from poachers in African countries. In one approach, the government sets up enormous national parks that have sufficient habitat for elephants to thrive and forbids all local people to enter the parks or to injure either the elephants or their habitat in any way. In a second approach, the government sets up national parks and designates 10 villages around the edges of the park as official tourist centers that become places where tourists can stay and bases for guided tours inside the national park. Consider the different incentives of local villagers—who often are very poor—in each of these plans. Which plan seems more likely to help the elephant population?
- Imagine any number of visitors can enter Umstead Park at no charge. The value of a trip (V) as a function of the number of visitors (N) is: V = 52 − 4N. The marginal value (MV) of a trip is: MV = 52 − 8N. Each visitor's travel costs to the park (C) are $4. If the park was managed in a way that only the socially efficient # of visitors enter, the value of a trip would be ____.In order to suppress the spread of a viral disease, the government has resorted to nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) that restrict the mobility of individuals such as quarantine and lockdown. Provide an economic framework, based on private and social benefits and costs that could guide the government in selecting the appropriate form and level of NPI. In the absence of a highly contagious disease, an individual engaging in activity x does not externalize any cost to others. In the presence of the disease, then an infected individual can transmit the disease to others during the performance of his or her activities. a. Discuss the nature of the externality, if there is any.Carbon dioxide emissions have been linked to increased air pollution.
