Scenario 4-2. Suppose there are three residents in a neighborhood, Barbara, Cole, and Dawn. They are considering the allocation of a certain public good in the neighborhood. Barbara’s demand for the public good is P = 120 – Q. Cole’s demand for the public good is P = 100 – Q. Dawn’s demand for the public good is P = 80 – Q. If your answer is not a whole number, please make sure to round to the nearest hundredth.Refer to Scenario 4-2. At what price is the socially optimal number of the public good produced equal to 40 units? Please do not enter the dollar sign in your answer.

Scenario 3-2 Consider a market with the following supply and demand curves: Qd= 50-2P and  Qs=P-10 Suppose the government charges the producer a tax of 3 dollars for each unit sold.Based on Scenario 3-2 What is the tax revenue?

Refer to the Table 3-1 below, which shows an economy where individuals live for two periods. Those who are young in one period become old retirees in the next. Suppose in Period 1, there was no Social Security program. In Period 2, the program begins and the young of that period pay tax to fund the program for the current retirees. In Period 5, suppose the Society Security program abruptly ends (such that retirees in Period 5 do not receive any benefits, and workers do not pay the tax towards Social Security). Suppose the payroll tax to support Social Security is 10%.
