Government regulations help balance negative externalities such as no smoking rules enforced to mitigate the effects of second-hand smoke.

<h3>What is negative externality?</h3>

Negative externality is when the activities of producers or consumers negatively affect third parties not involved in production or consumption activities.

For example, smoking affects those who are not smoking. They are affected by the second-hand smoke. To prevent this, no smoking rules can be enforced.

Last month, sellers of good Y took in $100 in total revenue on sales of 50 units of good Y. This month sellers of good Y raised
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Option c = They are Substitutes and have cross price elasticity of 1.67

Explanation:

Cross-Price Elasticity = <u>%change in Quantity demanded of  good X</u>

                                      %change in Price of good Y

% change in Quantity Demanded of good X = <u>Q2-Q1  </u> × 100

                                                                            (<u>Q1+Q2)</u>

                                                                                2

% change in Quantity Demanded of good X =<u> 40-20 </u> ×100

                                                                            <u>(20+40)</u>

                                                                                 2

% change in Quantity Demanded of good X = 66.67%

% change in price of good Y = <u>P2-P1</u> × 100

                                                  <u> ( P1+P2)</u>

                                                       2

Last month Total Revenue = $100

Total Units = 50

Last month Price / unit = 100/50 = $2

This Total Revenue $120

Total units 40

This monthPrice / unit = 120/40 = $3

% change in price of good Y=<u> 3 - 2     </u>× 100

                                                    <u>3+2</u>

                                                      2

% change in price of good Y =<u> 1   </u>× 100

                                                  2.5

% change in price of good Y = 40%

Cross-Price Elasticity =<u> 66.67</u>

                                        40

Cross- Price Elasticity = 1.67

Since its greater than 1 its Cross price elasticity of Substitute

also as the price of good y increased from $2 to $3 the quantity demanded of good x increased although its price remained constant which indicates its a substitute good as  people preferred buying good x instead of good y

Use the following information to answer the question. There are three firms in an economy: X, Y, and Z. Firm X buys $200 worth o
Kamila [148]

Answer:

$2,775

Explanation:

The computation of the GDP of the economy is given below:

But before that the total value sold by three firms would be determined

Total amount of goods sold by X:

= X sells to Y + X sells to Z

= $150 + $75

= $225

Total amount of goods sold by Y:

= Y sells to X + Y sells to Z

= $200 + $50

= $250

Total amount of goods sold by Z:

= Z sells to X + Z sells to Y

= $300 + $250

= $550

Now

Amount of goods generated by X

= units of output × cost per unit

= 250 units ×  $4

= $1,000

Value of goods generated by Y

= units of output × cost per unit

= 300 units ×  $6

= $1,800

Value of goods generated by Z

= units of output × cost per unit

= 500 units ×  $2

= $1,000

Now GDP is

= [Goods generated by X - Valued added by X] + [Goods generated by Y - Value added by Y] + [Goods generated by Z - Value added by Z]

= [$1,000 - $225] + [$1,800 - $250] + [$1,000 - $550]

= $775 + $1,550 + $450

= $2,775
