Consider a city that imposes a new pollution tax that increases the average cost (and price) of the good produced by a polluting industry by 4 percent and improves the citys environmental quality by 20 percent. The price elasticity of demand for the citys export goods is -1.50. a. The total output of

Ernie owns a water pump. Because pumping large amounts of water is harder than pumping small amounts, the cost of producing a bottle of water rises as he pumps more. Here is the cost he incurs to produce each bottle of water: Cost of first bottle - $1 Cost of second bottle - $3 Cost of third bottle
