Correctly illustrate a supply and demand curve. Pay close attention to the price controls. a) Wisconsin has a salmon market which sells salmon at $15/lb. At that price, 100,000 lbs. of salmon will be consumed in one week. Suppose the state of Wisconsin were to set a quantity control of 50,000 lbs. of salmon per week. Show: P and Q using correct labeling Changes in producer surplus and consumer surplus Deadweight loss Analysis Explain why this market is allocatively inefficient.

A steel mill, S, produces 20 tons of water pollution for every 100 tons of steel it produces. The downstream village of Watertown (WT) spends $150 per ton of water pollution from S to eliminate itsenvironmental harm. S is a price taker in an international market where the demand for steel is p = 100 – 3X and the market supply of steel is p = 40 + 3X. X is in units of one (1) million tons per day and p is the price in dollars per ton of steel. S has a daily increasing marginal cost of production function, MC = x.S's Total Cost function = x*x/2 where x is S’s daily output.(a) If S has no legal liability for its pollution, what is S’s daily production of steel?How does your answer here relate to the concept of private efficiency?(b) WT wants to bargain with S to reach an optimal agreement on this pollution. Assuming S is still not legally liable for its pollution and both S and WT do not use lawyers, would there be an agreement? How does your answer here relate the concept of private…

Figure 5-4Suppose there are several paper mills producing paper for a market. These mills, located upstream from a fishing village, discharge a large amount of wastewater into the river. The waste material affects the number of fish in the river and the use of the river for recreation and as a public water supply source. Figure 5-4 shows the paper market. Use this Figure to answer the following question(s).Refer to Figure 5-4. What does S1 represent? Question 4 options: A) the market supply curve that reflects social cost B) the market supply curve that reflects only external cost C) the market supply curve that reflects only private benefit D) the market supply curve that reflects private cost
Consider the supply of soybeans in South America and the demand for soybeans in China. Draw a graph in which you show the current market equilibrium price of soybeans and quantity of soybeans traded. Include the curve that shows the true social costs of soybean production. Show the socially optimal amount of soybeans traded. Show the price that should really be charged for soybeans to ensure that production moves to the socially optimal level. Ensure that you label your graph correctly (all curves, axes, prices and quantities labeled). Show the deadweight loss of soybean production. What intervention could be used to change the market price for soybeans to the level that would move the quantity of soybeans traded to the optimal level? Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution.
