Answer:

$10.80

Explanation:

Given that:

A first-period efficient allocation cost = $10

The constant marginal extraction cost  MEC for both periods = $2

The social discount rate (r) = 10%

∴

The efficient undiscounted market price for the 2nd period can be determined by using the formula:

P_1 - MEC_1 = \dfrac{P_2 -MEC_2}{1+r} \\ \\  \implies 10 -2 = \dfrac{P_2-2}{1+0.1} \\ \\ 8 = \dfrac{P_2-2}{1.1} \\ \\ P_2 -2 = 8 \times 1.1 \\ \\ P_2-2=8.8 \\ \\ P_2 = 8.8+2 \\ \\ \mathbf{P_2 = \$10.80}
