Imagine that a town of 200 people is trying to decide whether to pay for mosquito control. The town has surveyed their citizens and they each say they value mosquito control at $75. Mosquito control only costs $2,500 so the town goes ahead and pays for the service. When the town asks for donations to pay for the mosquito control, they only receive $1,000. What does this result show? Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a The town's citizens were free riders. b The mosquito control suffered from the tragedy of commons. The mosquito control cost must have been greater than its economic benefit. d. The town's survey must have overestimated the value of mosquito control.

Please solve part d,e and f!!! Three roommates, Jim, Saleem, and Ritesh, are thinking about buying a new speaker system for their apartment. The speaker system would be a public good if they buy them, and the total cost would be $300 which would be shared equally among the three. Jim values it at $80, Saleem values it at $140, and Ritesh values it at $70. If the speakers are purchased each person gets a payoff equal to their net valuation (valuation minus cost share); if they are not purchased each gets zero payoff. a)Is it socially efficient that they buy the speaker system? With reference to the definition of a public good, why or why not? The roommates decide that they will write down their net valuations, and if these reports sum to more than zero, they will buy the TV (sharing the cost equally), or else they will not. b) If all were to report their true valuations, what payoff would each agent earn? c) Show that if Jim and Ritesh submit their true net valuation, then Saleem does…
Firm A currently dumps 243 tons of chemicals into the local river. Firm B currently dumps 126 tons of chemicals into the local river. The government has decided to reduce the pollution and from now on will require a pollution permit for each ton of pollution dumped into the river. The government gives Firm A 61 pollution permits and gives Firm B 65 pollution permits. The abatement costs of one ton of pollution is $113 for Firm A and $165 for Firm B. What would be the total cost of reducing pollution, if the government does NOT allow the firm to trade the permits between each other?

One way governments can charge firms for pollution rights is by imposing a per-unit tax on emissions. A tax (or price in this case) of of radioactive waste emitted will achieve the desired level of pollution. $36 per ton Now suppose the U.S. government does not know the demand curve for pollution and, therefore, cannot determine the optimal tax to achieve the desired level of pollution. Instead, it auctions off tradable pollution permits. Each permit entitles its owner to emit one ton of…

Firm A currently dumps 161 tons of chemicals into the local river. Firm B currently dumps 127 tons of chemicals into the local river. The government has decided to reduce the pollution and from now on will require a pollution permit for each ton of pollution dumped into the river. The government gives Firm A 13 pollution permits and gives Firm B 43 pollution permits. The abatement costs of one ton of pollution is $175 for Firm A and $60 for Firm B. What would be the total cost of reducing pollution, if the firms are allowed to trade permits between each other?
Apolluting firm dumps waste into the ocean during production. The loss in value due to damaging the fish stack is valued at $100,000 (you can think of this as lost profits for fishing firms). The firm could eliminate the pollution at a cost of $60,000 a year. Choose the statement that describes the expected efficient outcome if the polluting firm has property rights over the ocean. The firm continues to pollute The polluting firm pays the $60,000 to eliminate pollution The fishing firms pay the $60,000 to eliminate pollution The polluting firm and fishing firms share the $60,000 cost of eliminating pollution
