Show in a graph a market where there is simultaneously a positive and a negative externality. Give sample numbers to quantities and prices. Show the market output and the efficient output level. Show the per unit amount for each externality. What are government policies that would result in an efficient outcome? Explain all the above with words + graph

A market is described by the following supply and demand curves:Supply: P=0.25QDemand: P=300-0.75Q(a) Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity and calculate the total economic surpluswith a diagram.(b) Suppose government sets a price floor of $90. With the price regulation, calculatewith a diagram the sizes of shortage (or surplus), consumer surplus, produce surplusand deadweight loss.(c) Instead of a price floor, government regulates the price by a price ceiling of $90.Predict the change of market efficiency if the government imposes a price ceiling of$90.(d) Instead of a price control, government levies a $20 excite tax on producers. Formulatethe new supply curve and solve for the new equilibrium price and quantity. Calculatewith a diagram the tax revenue and the tax incidences for both producers andconsumers. Discuss how buyers and sellers share the tax burden by applying relevanttheories and an appropriate diagram.

The members of a neighborhood community have been having a problem with mosquitoes. Although people have been complaining, only a few residents have had their lawns professionally sprayed for mosquitoes. The homeowner's association decides to use some of the association dues to provide vouchers to reduce the costs for residents who would like to have their properties sprayed. Match each statement about the effects of the voucher policy to the correct graph for the mosquito-spraying market. Click on the graphs to enlarge. Drag each item on the left to its matching item on the right. The Dinternal curve will shift toward the Dsocial curve. Chemicals from the mosquito spray may leach into the groundwater. The deadweight loss of mosquito spraying will be reduced or eliminated. Neighborhood visitors will receive fewer mosquito bites. + Price Price Esocial optimum Q -Ey-market equilibrium Da Quantity
