Suppose that three individuals each benefit from a public good. The marginal cost of the public good provision is fixed at $15 per unit: MC = $15 Whereas each of the three individuals (Person 1, Person 2, and Person 3) each receive a marginal benefit for each unit of the public good defined by: Person 1: MB!= 30 − 2Q Person 2: MB"= 20 − 2Q Person 3: MB#= 21 − Q As is the case with public goods, they are non-rival. Therefore, note that each person gains benefit from the total amount of Q purchased by everybody, not just the individual value that they purchase themselves (e.g. Q1, Q2, or Q3). 1. Draw a figure with all three MB curves, the MC curve, and the Social Marginal Benefit (SMB) Curve. Label all x-intercepts, y-intercepts, and kinks in the SMB curve Full explain this question and text typing work only
