6 Theory of consumer behavior 7 Tit-for-tat strategy 8 Transferable emissions permits 9 Rent seeking 10 Reservation price 二、简答题：（共 10 分） 1. Medical research has shown the negative health effects of “secondhand” smoke. Recent social trends point to growing intolerance of smoking in public areas. If you are a smoker and you wish to continue smoking despite tougher anti smoking laws, describe the effect of the following legislative proposals on your behavior. As a result of these programs, do you, the individual smoker, benefit? Does society benefit as a whole? a. A bill is proposed that would lower tar and nicotine levels in all cigarettes. b. A tax is levied on each pack of cigarettes sold. c. Smokers would be required to carry government issued smoking permits at all times. 得分 阅卷教师

Suppose both firms have entered the industry.What is the joint profit-maximizing level of output?How much will each firm produce? would your answer change if the firms have not yet entered the industry? What is each firm's equilibrium output and profit if they behave noncooperatively?Use the Cournot model Draw the firms'reaction curves and show the equilibrium. How much should Firm 1 be willing to pay to purchase Firm 2 if collusion is illegal but the takeover is not? 2.In a market for dry cleaning,the inverse market demand function is given by P=100-Q and the (pr ivate)m rginal cos of p roductionfo by the dr cleaning process creates external damages given by the marginal external cost curve MEC=O. a.Calculate the output and price of dry cleaning if it is produced under competitive conditions abs nt regulation. b. Determ ne t. e socially efficient price and output of dry cleaning. Determine the tax that would result in a competitive market producing the socially efficient output. Calculate the output and price of dry cleaning if it is produced under monopolistic conditions without regulation. Determine the tax that would result in a monopolistic market producing Assuming that no attempt is made to monitor or regulate the pollution, which market structure yields higher social welfare?Discuss
三、Calculation：（每题 20 分，共 40 分） 1. Consider two firms facing the demand curve P = 50 - 5Q, where Q = Q1 + Q2 . The firms’ cost functions are C1 (Q1 ) = 20 + 10Q1 and C2 (Q2 ) = 10 + 12Q2 . a. Suppose both firms have entered the industry. What is the joint profit-maximizing level of output? How much will each firm produce? How would your answer change if the firms have not yet entered the industry? b. What is each firm’s equilibrium output and profit if they behave noncooperatively? Use the Cournot model. Draw the firms’ reaction curves and show the equilibrium. c. How much should Firm 1 be willing to pay to purchase Firm 2 if collusion is illegal but the takeover is not? 2. In a market for dry cleaning, the inverse market demand function is given by P = 100− Q and the (private) marginal cost of production for the aggregation of all dry cleaning firms is given by MC =10 + Q . Finally, the pollution generated by the dry cleaning process creates external damages given by the marginal external cost curve MEC = Q. a. Calculate the output and price of dry cleaning if it is produced under competitive conditions absent regulation. b. Determine the socially efficient price and output of dry cleaning. c. Determine the tax that would result in a competitive market producing the socially efficient output. d. Calculate the output and price of dry cleaning if it is produced under monopolistic conditions without regulation. e. Determine the tax that would result in a monopolistic market producing the socially efficient output. f. Assuming that no attempt is made to monitor or regulate the pollution, which market structure yields higher social welfare? Discuss. 得分 阅卷教师
