EXPLAIN THOROUGHLY 1) What are some of the problems that result when a government prints money rather than raises taxes to pay its expenses? 2) How should user charges for government-provided goods and services be set to achieve efficientoutputs and usage rates of such products? 3) Indicate whether you agree with the following statement, and give your reasons for doing so: “Ifthe highways crossing the City of Koronadal were a pure public good, efficiency would require that the price to use the road be zero. However, during rush hour congestion, the road cannot be regarded as a pure public good and a toll should be charged for its use.” If an automated vehicle identification system were established for residents of the City of Koronadal who use the highways, how would you set tolls to achieve efficient use of the road? The AVI system would allow you to send a bill to each user of the road each month based on miles traveled on the road and the price you charge which could vary by time of…
There are many private companies selling life insurance and there is virtually no problem associated with that market. On the other hand, many people like insurance to smooth their income over the business cycle, especially people working in the growing gig economy where their alternating periods of employment and unemployment. But no one sells income insurance. question: 1. Why do competitive markets work better for life insurance than for income insurance? 2. Why are governments able to provide this type of insurance when private companies cannot provide it?
Conversely, show geometrically the effect of a decrease in Price (i.e., BELOW the equilibrium price). What “economic problem” is created now in the market. Measure geometrically he magnitude or distance of such “economic problem”. Again, in the face of such an economic problem, where private sector buyers and suppliers could not do anything more, which economic actor should come to intervene properly? Discuss what should that intervener do amidst such economic problem faced by the microeconomic actor – NOTABLY THE PRODUCER OR SELLER. As an Economist (or beyond the limits of Economic studies), what would you recommend to the VEGETABLE PRODUCERS and to the GOVERNMENT as well? Discuss exhaustively.

Assume an increase in the price from the EQUILIBRIUM PRICE as established in # 1 above, SHOW GEOMETRICALLY (using a graph) the effect of such an increase in Price ABOVE THE EQUILIBRIUM point. What “economic problem” is created in the market. Measure geometrically the magnitude or distance of such “economic problem”. In the face of such an economic problem, where private sector buyers and suppliers could not do anything more (and considering the PERISHABILITY OF THE VEGETABLE PRODUCT), which economic actor should come to intervene properly? Discuss what should that intervener do amidst such economic problem faced by the microeconomic actors -- the buyers and the sellers.

1a) Water filtration removes contaminants that increase the risk of plant diseases from a farmer's water sources. As a result, there is a decreased risk of consumers suffering illnesses from consuming crops grown with filtered water. Due to this, economists might suggest that the use of water filtration systems in agriculture has an associated ________ externality? 1b) Draw the private cost, private benefit, social cost, and social benefit curves in the market for water filtration systems. If any of the curves are the same, label the curve as both. 1c) Is there market failure if the market runs freely? If so, is the socially optimal quantity of farmers using water filtration systems higher or lower than the market outcome? 1d) Provide a policy suggestion that would help to correct any market failures that arise due to this externality. Explain why this would be effective. 2a) Livestock and poultry farming are some of the largest contributors of ammonia emissions. Ammonia has been…
