Answer 3

Hmm

Answer 4

Governments can sometimes improve market outcomes. Markets do many things well. With competition and no externalities, markets will allocate resources so as to maximize the surplus available. However, if these conditions are not met, markets may fail to achieve the optimal outcome. This is also known as "market failure".

Answer 5

Positive Externalities

Not all externalities are negative. Some create benefits to those not directly involved. Such is the case with "technology spillover", where new inventions benefit those beyond the inventors.

Some have argued that governments should subsidize research and development, since it will have positive externalities to everyone else. Another method is to allow patents to give monopoly rights to new inventions for a period of time, and encourage such activity. Without this method, there could be an under investment in research. Positive externalities in production means that social cost is less than private cost, and more of the good should be produced than will occur in a free market.

There may also be positive externalities in consumption, such as education. In this case, the social value is greater than the private value

Answer 6

Negative Externalities

When economic agents not directly involved, negative externalities can exist, such as pollution. A free market tends to over-produce the good which produces a negative externality, and under produce those with positive externality. If we include costs borne by everyone, then we get social costs, which are the total costs of production no matter who bears them. We say that the total cost is equal to private costs plus external costs.

Negative externalities result in a lower free-market output. In order to make the market produce the optimal amount, we must impose a tax. This is called "internalizing the externality", and forces those involved to account for external costs. There are also externalities in "consumption", when consumption has costs for persons other than those actually consuming the product. Examples of these are cigarettes and second-hand smoke, and drinking alcohol and car accidents.

Answer 8

Well market failure can occur in a number of ways,
1)Some goods may be overproduced,thus resourses are over allocated.
2)Some goods are underproduced,thus resources are under allocated
3)The production or comsumption of some goods effects third parties.
