3 Suppose the owner of the vacant land will provide for and maintain a neighborhood park at a fee of $125 per acre; the neighbors may lease up to acres of land per month Add this information to the graph you drew in Problem 1, and show the efficient solution Are the neighbors likely to achieve this solution? Explain the problems involved in achieving it The perfectly competitive blank compact disc industry is in longrun equilibrium, selling blank discs for $5 apiece Now the government imposes an excise tax of $2 per disc produced Show what happens to the price and output of discs in the short run Now show the impact in the long run Who pays the tax? (Note: Show quantities as Q1, Q2, etc.) A monopoly firm has just taken over the blank compact-disc industry There have been technological advances that have lowered production cost, but the monopoly firm charges a price greater than average total cost, even in the long run As it turns out, the firm is still selling compact discs for $5 The government imposes an excise tax of $2 per disc produced What happens to price? What happens to output?
