|
ban the activity. |
|
| subsidize the activity | |
|
tax the activity. |
Ans) Positive externality is when the bystander bears the benefit of any activity. Here, quantity produced by the market is less than socially desirable quantity. So, to internalise this externality, government gives subsidy equal to the external benefit. This subsidy decreases the price and increases the quantity. Eg- education

If the production of a good generates a positive externality, then: Multiple Choice production of the good is harmful. there will be deadweight loss at the market equilibrium quantity. total economic surplus will be maximized at the market equilibrium quantity. the government should tax producers of the good.
The economically efficient level of an externality is zero. True O False
Discuss one activity that generates externalities, positive or negative, that effects you . How does its affects people and what should the government or market do to encourage or discourage that activity ?
19) According to the efficient market hypothesis, a) Fundamental analysis that generates POSITIVE alpha violates STRONG form efficiency. b) Fundamental analysis that generates POSITIVE alpha violates WEAK form efficiency. c) Fundamental analysis that generates POSITIVE alpha violates SEMI-STRONG form efficiency. d) Both a) and c) are correct. e) Both b) and c) are correct.
In the case of a positive externality: The private market produces too much of the good The market price is below the efficient price Efficiency requires that the government impose a tax Market price reflects the social costs of production Efficiency requires that the government impose a subsidy
In markets where a positive externality is involved we expect: Select one: a. Inefficient overproduction of the good b. Taxes can incentivize market participants to bring about the efficient outcome c. Inefficient underproduction of the good d. The private benefit of the good exceeds the social benefit of the good

Taxes can incentivize market participants to bring about the efficient outcome o c. Inefficient underproduction of the good d. The private benefit of the good exceeds the social benefit of the good
Technology spillover is one type of: o negative externality. producer surplus. subsidy. o positive externality. Technology spillover occurs when: the government subsidizes firms engaged in high-tech research. a firm passes the high costs of technical research on to society through higher prices. copyright laws prohibit firms from profiting from the research of others. a firm's research yields technical knowledge that is used by society as a whole. Which of the following is the most effective way to internalize a technology...

Unregulated markets produce too few of the goods and services that have positive externalities. D. Markets with positive externalities do not need government intervention to operate efficiently E.
