A perfectly competitive firm produces at the following point.
P = MC
=> P = MC = 0
=> P = 0
At price of $0, the quantity demand is 24. Hence, at equilibrium Qd = Qs
=>So, the equilibrium quantity produced is 24 units.
At the perfectly competitive price, the price of a unit of electricity is $0 and the quantity produced is 24 units.

Table 1 shows the demand schedule for electricity from a coal burning utility. Table 2 shows the utility's cost of producing electricity and the external cost of the pollution created. If the government levies a pollution tax such that the utility generates the efficient quantity of electricity, calculate the quantity of electricity generated, the price of electricity, the size of the pollution tax, and the tax revenue. The quantity of electricity generated is nothing kilowatts a day and the price...
