The city of Animaltown plans to build a new bridge across the river separating the two halves of the city for use by its residen

ts. It is considering two plans for financing this bridge. Plan A calls for the bridge to be paid for out of tax revenues, allowing anyone to use the bridge freely. Plan B calls for imposing a toll of $6 for crossing the bridge, with the remainder of the cost to be paid out of tax revenues. City planners estimate a local demand curve for hourly use of the bridge to be Q = 1,800 – 100P. The bridge will be able to accommodate 2000 cars per hour without congestion. Which of the plans is more efficient, and why? How would your answer change if congestion was predicted on the bridge?

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer: The optimal price is higher than market price by less than $0.50.

Explanation:

Since, it was given that Coase theorem doesn't hold in this situation, hence, the social marginal cost is greater than the private marginal cost by $0.50. The social marginal cost curve lies towards the left of demand curve.

Since the demand and supply curve are not perfectly elastic or inelastic, so the optimal equilibrium occurs at a point (price) which is greater than the prevailing market price, but the difference in the price is less than $0.50.

Therefore, the optimal price is higher than market price by less than $0.50.

To complete a job analysis using the PAQ, the user reviews background information, observes the job, and conducts thorough interviews with job incumbents to determine job content then rates the extent to which each item on a standard list of PAQ job elements applies to that particular job. There are six types of rating scales used in the PAQ:

The opportunity cost of doing or getting something is best and fully defined as:
Marysya12 [62]

Answer: The correct answer is C. The value of the best alternative that is given up in order to do or get something.

Explanation: Opportunity cost literally means alternative thing forgone - meaning what is given up to get something <em>(sacrifice</em>). It is a concept used by economists to allocate limited resources for production, consumption, distribution and exchange of goods and services. Production of goods or services entails the creation of value. In other words, it gives a more understanding on how limited resources are allocated in order to satisfy the human insatiable desires.

For example, a student may be constrained with limited amount of pocket money, say $100 and the student wants to buy textbooks that cost $10 each or go for different outings going for $20 each. In this scenario, the student has different options: a) buy 10 textbooks and 0 outing b) buy 8 textbooks and a outing c) 6 textbooks and two outings d) 4 textbooks and three outings e) 0 textbooks and five outings. For the student to have any more of the other, he has to give up the other unit. What is given up is called opportunity cost.
