Describe a real-world government policy that creates a market surplus.
Help with 8 questions
1. Describe a real-world government policy that creates a market surplus. Be sure to carefully define the relevant market and the stakeholders that are involved in the market. Explain the efficiency implications of the policy you have picked. Make sure to relate your answer to the producer, consumer, and total surplus in the market. In the instance you have described, what is the government’s motivation for intervening in the market in this way? Will a deadweight loss exist in your example, please explain your analysis?
2. One of the major problems in applying the Coarse Theorem in practice is the existence of high transaction costs. Propose an approach that a third party could use that would reduce these costs sufficiently so that bargaining could proceed. How likely is the solution to be efficient, and why? Do you think government intervention in the market will allow for markets to allocate resources, efficiently or not?
3. Suppose you are using a risk-benefit analysis to evaluate a policy aimed at limiting the use of a pesticide applied to a specific crop of your choice. Describe the risks and benefits that would have to be estimated to conduct this analysis properly. Please make sure to research your specific crop, in your risk-benefit analysis. In your answer, make sure to fully describe each of the stakeholders that are involved in this market and the implications of the pesticide.
4. For this week, we are going to focus on the application of what you have learned and apply it to the news around us. Find a relevant article that has to deal with the first four weeks of the course. Present your article to your peers, then summarize the article in one paragraph, the next paragraph, present two economic terms that you have referenced from the article, then apply the terms to whether you agree or disagree with the recommendations of the author’s position.
5. Review the air quality topics and identify the following in your work: a.) What is the pollutant that is being identified? b.) What type of program would you recommend to address the area? c.) How can we measure the effectiveness of this program? d.) What happens if the market was left alone to bring about market solutions?
6. You have been recently hired as a consultant, working as part of an EPA team, you now have an assignment. As an alternative to standards, one policy proposal is the use of permit trading among point sources of water pollution. Give the major reason why this is advantageous (a) from an economic perspective and (b) from an environmental perspective. In your research, make sure to select a specific industry and provide why permit trading would be good for society.
7. Visit the Website of Environmental Defense Fund, and review the list of their recent corporate partnerships. Select one, and summarize the cooperative efforts between Environmental Defense and a private firm. Identify some of the potential environmental and economic benefits associated with that partnership.
8. In no more than 250 words, please (1) describe how you feel this course has helped you to improve your economic knowledge and analytical skills, and (2) assess the course objectives you still do not understand and suggest how to improve the course to meet those objectives, and 3) did the course content and instructor’s facilitation of this course meet your expectations.
Last week, you outlined your argumentative essay. This week, you must use your instructor’s feedback and information from the course materials to turn your outline into an essay draft. Weekly instructor guidance and Chapters 1, 2, and 3 in the course text,College Writing Handbook, will walk you through the process.
The Week 3 assignment is the first draft of your academic argument. In this assignment, you will show that you are making progress in all course learning outcomes:
Integrate relevant source material effectively and ethically.
Support a position appropriate to the rhetorical situation.
You will submit a 3- to 4-page (1,000 to 1,250 words) rough-draft essay that is formatted in proper APA style. This rough draft assignment must integrate prior feedback and show improvement from your prior coursework. The rough draft will be evaluated differently than a final draft essay, so pay close attention to the grading rubrics and requirements.
Your argument should be sound, valid, and based upon evidence from at least 5 credible sources. At least 3 of your sources must be scholarly. You may integrate additional information, since your final draft requires additional research. Information and evidence must be integrated appropriately, cited in APA-style, and used with integrity. Remember to draft your essay for an academic audience.
NOTESS **Can you please use the corrections in the outline toward the essay. Also, the paper needs 5 total sources, 3 scholarly, 2 from anywhere. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Requirements: 3-5 pages not including title/reference page (1000 words)
Do you believe there is a possibility the “West” may embrace the traditional Chinese philosophy of “gerontocracy,” and offer greater value to those who have reached and are living in the late adulthood stage of development? Do you have suggestions for how to advocate for this? How do you think our culture could benefit from this, if you believe it could?
Your neighbor tells you that his eleven-year-old daughter has been having behavior and academic problems in school. “Her teacher recommended taking her to the pediatrician to get a prescription for Ritalin,” he said.
In a well-thought-out paper integrating information from the learning resources and module readings, make an argument for why your neighbor should first have his daughter evaluated by a clinical psychologist. Discuss the types of assessment tools the psychologist might use in his or her evaluation and how these tools would help in guiding diagnosis and treatment. Make sure to use appropriate sources of information that ground your argument in well-established, empirically sound science and practice. Properly cite and reference resources, applying APA Style.
This paper should be written as a coherent essay, in approximately 700-1000 words, and formatted in APA Style. You are encouraged to include insights in your recommendations as you address the key issues outlined above.
