Answer:

Tax = Marginal External Damage

Explanation:

When a negative externality distorts market outcome, we often see that a government intervention is needed. We must incorporate the negative externality into the private decision of the producer. That is to say that we add marginal damage caused by the externality to the marginal private cost of production. The social outcome will be at the point where marginal social cost (MSC) is equal to Marginal private benefit (MPB).

Thus, the efficient level of tax on emission is set equal to the marginal external damage.

Tax = t  = MED

MSC = MPC + MED

        = MPC + t

Answer:

D. The marginal cost of light is zero, and by convention zero-priced goods and services are excluded from GDP

Explanation:

Only things that have a monetary cost are included in GDP. Things that do not cost "anything" in monetary terms are not included, and this is a major shortcoming of GDP.

From an ecological economics standpoint, things like sunlight, air, and water are often not valued and included in GDP. This is the same case as in the question, because the marginal cost of light is zero, then, it is not included in GDP.

= 3,000 pounds × ($13 - $11.37)

= 3,000 pounds × $1.63

= $4,890 increase

For determining the effect we took the difference of the prices and then multiply it with the number of pounds of the inferior product
