Why won't a private business produce a nonexcludable public good?

1 answer:

8 0

<span>Public goods are goods which are non-excludable (no one can be denied from using it) and non-rival (use by one wouldn't affect the consumption by another).

Because of this, people want to use the good but not pay for it as they know, once the good is provided, they can't be excluded from using it. This is called Free riding.

Private companies will not be able to tackle the problem of free riding as they won't know what rate to charge and how to make everyone pay.

Govt. can, however do this easily.</span>

A company has only two divisions: division a and division

Sloan [31]

Answer – Division A

EXPLANATION’

Given for last year,

Division A made 60% of the company's total revenue.

Let the company’s total revenue for last year be x

60% of x = 0.6x

Division A made 0.6x last year

Also given for last year,

Division B made 40% of the company's total revenue.

If the company’s total revenue for last year is x

40% of x = 0.4x

Division B made 0.4x last year

For this year,

We are told that division A's revenue has decreased by 35%

Last year’s revenue was 0.6x

Division A’s revenue for this year = 0.6x – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% of 0.6x) – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.6x) – (35% * 0.6x)

= (100% - 35%) * 0.6x

= 65% * 0.6x

= 65/100 * 0.6x

= 0.39x

Therefore this year, Division A’s revenue is 0.39x

Again for this year,

We are told that division B's revenue has decreased by 5%

Last year’s revenue was 0.4x

Division B’s revenue for this year = 0.4x – (5% of 0.4x)

= (100% of 0.4x) – (5% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.4x) – (5% * 0.4x)

= (100% - 5%) * 0.4x

= 95% * 0.4x

= 0.38x

Therefore this year, Division B’s revenue is 0.38x

If Division A’s revenue is 0.39x, and Division B’s revenue is 0.38x; then Division A had higher revenue this year.
