A market has a demand function given by the equation Qd = 180 - 2P, and a supply functiongivebn by the equation Qs = -15 + P. The market is government regulated with a price support per unit and production quotas. If the price is set at $72 per unit, what production quota is needed to make sure there are no shortages or surpluses? Considering the price support and the quota, calculate i) the consumer surplus ii) the producer surplus iii) deadweight loss
We have seen that monetizing the benefits of environmental improvements is difficult. Consequently, some researchers have argued that policymakers themselves should determine the goals of environmental policies in terms of how much pollution abatement is necessary, and then market-based environmental policy tools should be used to achieve such goals in a cost-effective manner. Examples of such market-based tools include all of the following except ____. A. Pollution Taxes B. Abatment Subsidies C. Command and Control Policies Please Answer Correctly Will Rate IF Correct!

2. A society has to decide between allocating a sum of money I between the current generation (A) and the future generation (B). Total social welfare is determined according to a simple utilitarian aggregation of both generations' utilities. The utility of generation B 1 has to be discounted in order to be considered. The discount factor is (1+i)" where i is the prevailing interest rate and n is the number of years in the future in which generation B will be born. If both generations have the same utility function log (I) (where x=A or B), find out the division of income between the generations for the following combinations of the interest rate and n: i. n 1 year and i = 5%. ii. n=1 year and i = 10%. iii. n = 2 year and i = 5%. iv. n 2 year and i = 7%. v. n 10 years and i = 0%. =
