Ans) Positive externality is when the bystander bears the benefit of any activity. Here vaccination by one reduces the chance of getting sick of others as well as it reduced the chances for spread of virus.
In positive externality marginal social benefit exceeds marginal private benefit. And the difference between the two is external benefit. To internalise this externality, government gives subsidy equivalent to the amount of external benefit.
So, curve A is most likely to be social benefit curve and curve B, private benefit curve.

For questions 11 - 12, refer to the following graph for the market of vaceines in a small community. The administration of vaceines not only protect the consumer from diseases, but belps enforce herd immunity meaning other the rest of the community is less likely to get catch the disease.. The external benefits are included in the creation of the marginal social benefit curve. Price 4000 52000 51015 30405060 Quantity in Thousands 11. How many vaccinations would the free market...

Problem Set 2. Market Failure: Externalities and Common Pool Resources EconS 326 1. Cigarette production requires use of energy, water and other resources. When planting tobacco leaves, fertilizer is used that creates runoff and water pollution in waterways. Tobacco smoke pollutes indoor and outdoor environments and remains a pervasive and persistent source of toxicants long after the cigarette is extinguished. a. Is there too little, too much or the correct amount of cigarette produced or consumed from a socially optimal...
