The marginal social cost of production is:
A. Vertical sum of the demand curve and the marginal cost of polluting
B. Horizontal sum of supply curve and the marginal cost of polluting
C. Horizontal sum of the demand curve and the marginal cost of polluting
D. Vertical sum of the supply curve and the marginal cost of polluting
Ans: Vertical sum of the supply curve and the marginal cost of polluting.
Explanation:
MSC is defined as the change in society's total cost due to the production of an additional unit of a good or service.
MSC = Marginal Private costs (MPC) + Marginal External Costs (MEC)
MPC is the same as supply curve. So, the marginal social cost of production is the vertical sum of the supply curve and the marginal cost of polluting.
Thus, option [D] is correct answer.

Marginal Revenue Product (MRP) curve is: Multiple Choice the market demand curve for labour and, is the sum of supply of labour to individual firms. the market demand curve for labour and, is the horizontal summation of the marginal factor cost to the individual firms. the market demand curve for labour and, it refers to the increase in total revenue resulting from sale of an additional unit of output. the market demand curve for labour and, is the vertical summation...
In a perfectly competitive market, the market supply curve is a. the vertical sum of all the individual firms' supply curves. b. always a horizontal line. c. the marginal cost curve above average total cost for a representative firm. d. the horizontal sum of all the individual firms' supply curves. Table 14-11 Suppose that a firm in a competitive market faces the following prices and costs: Price Quantity Total Cost $5 $3 $5 $8 $12 $17 $5 $23 Refer to...
1. What happens to the marginal cost curve when the marginal product of labor is rising? A) It becomes vertical. B) It falls. C) It rises. D) It becomes horizontal. 2. The payment of wages by a firm is an example of: A) a long-run cost of production. B) an explicit cost of production. C) an irreversible cost of production. D) an implicit cost of production.
a monopolist faces the following demand curve, marginal revenue curve, total cost curve and marginal cost curve for its product: Q=200-2P MR=100-Q TC=5Q MC=5 What level of output maximizes total revenue? A) 95 B) 0 C) 90 D)100 What is the profit maximizing level output? A)0 B)100 C)90 D)95 How much profit does the monopolist earn? A)4512.50 B)5.00 C)475.00 D)4987.50
1. An increase in the supply of labor, the variable factor of production, will cause a monopsonist's: a. marginal revenue product curve to shift up b. marginal revenue product curve to shift down arginal factor cost curve to shift up marginal factor cost curve to shift down ARP e. both "a" and "c" are correct answers f. both "b" and "c" are correct answers g. both "a" and "d" are correct answers h. both "b" and "d" are correct answers...
When the demand curve is vertical and the supply curve is upward sloping a rise in the input price increase marginal cost by $1, decreases the firm's profit by $1 a drop in the input that lowers the marginal cost by $1, doubles the firm's profit (wrong answer) a drop in the input price that lowers the marginal cost by $1, decrease the output price by $1 a rise the input price that increase the marginal cost by $1, doubles...
Explain why the industry supply curve is not the long-run industry marginal cost curve. The industry supply curve is not the long-run industry marginal cost curve because O A. production will only occur along the long-run marginal cost curve for prices above average variable cost. O B. at prices above the minimum long-run average cost of production, firms will exit the industry. O C. production will only occur along the long-run marginal cost curve when profits are earned. O D....
A monopolist, faces a demand curve given by: P+105-3Q, marginal cost of production is $15, no fixed cost, what is deadweight loss

B. expansion and contractions in individual markets. C. shifts in real GDP and the price level. Which of the following descriptions reflects the AD-AS model most accurately? A. Real GDP is shown on the vertical axis and the price level is shown on the horizontal axis. B. Aggregate supply is shown...
