The state of Colorado requires oil and gas companies who use fracking techniques to retune the land to its original condition after the oil and gas extractions. Table 12.9 shows the total cost and total benefits (in dollars) of this policy. Calculate the marginal cost and the marginal benefit at each quantity (acre) of land restored. See Production. Costs and Industry Structure if you need a refresher on how to calculate marginal costs and benefits. If we apply marginal analysis, what is the optimal amount of land to be restored?

Consider two approaches to reducing emissions of CO2 into the environment from manufacturing industries in the United States. In the first approach, the U.S. government makes it a policy to use only predetermined technologies. In the second approach, the U.S. government determines which technologies are cleaner and subsidizes their use. Of the two approaches, which is the command-and-control policy?
Computer models of global climate changecaused by increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere predictnot only higher overall temperatures, but also more intense andfrequent heat waves. During the devastating European heatwave in the summer of 2003, between 35,000 and 52,000“excess deaths” occurred. Before taking specific actions toreduce carbon dioxide emissions, economists and politicians tryto estimate the costs. Should excess deaths be included as acost of inaction? If so, what value should we place on a life?
ANSWER LETTER A As a eco-tourism site, the Kubak crystal caves are renowned for their stalactites and stalagmites.The warden of the caves offers a tour each afternoon at 2pm sharp. The caves can be shown toonly four people per day without disturbing their fragile ecology. Occasionally, however, more thanfour people want to see the caves on the same day. The following schedule lists the people whowanted to see the caves on September 24, 2003, together with their respective times of arrival andreservation prices for taking the tour that day. Customers Arrival Time Reservation price Herman 1:48 P 20 Jon 1:50 14 Kate 1:53 30 Jack 1:56 15 Penny 1:57 40 Fran 1:59 12 Faith 2:00 17 a.) If the tour is “free” and the warden operates on a first-come, first-served basis, what will the total consumer surplus be for the four people who get to go on the tour that day? b.) Suppose the warden solicits volunteers to postpone their tour by offering increasing amounts of cash…
art 1 of O Points: 0 of 1 Previous Question A municipal solid-waste site for a city must be located at Site A or Site B. After sorting, some of ti plant are shown in the table below. hsported to an electric power plant where it will be used as fuel. Data for the hauling of refuse from each site to the power Site A Site B Average hauling distance 5 miles 4 miles $110,000 Annual rental fee for solid-waste site $4,000 Hauling cost $1.43/yd"-mile $1.43/yd'-mile If the power plant will pay $8.06 per cubic yard of sorted solid waste delivered to the plant, where should the solid-waste site be located? Use the city's viewpoint and assume that 200,000 cubic yards of refuse will be hauled to the plant for one year only. One site must be selected. The total cost of locating the power plant at the Site A is $. (Round to the nearest dollar.)

25. Suppose that there is a large farm and a large recreation firm located on a river. The farm is upstream of the recreational area. The farm uses the streamflow for irrigation. Let S be the amount of streamflow used by the farm and suppose its marginal benefit for irrigation is given by MB-5000-15S. Use of streamflow by the farm is costly to the recreational firm, though, because of lost opportunities for boating, fishing, and camping. Suppose this marginal cost is given by MC=5s. (a) Draw a sketch of the MB and MC curves for use of S by the farm. On your graph, show the efficient level of S by the farm. Solve for this amount from the equations. (b) If unregulated, the farm uses streamflow at a price of zero. Show on your graph what S this corresponds to. Solve for it from the equations. (c) If the government sets a tax price on streamflow, what tax price per unit of S will result in the farm using the efficient level of streamflow? Show on your graph and find with the equations.
