Purpose of Assignment In Week 2, students will employ the supply and demand model to develop consumer surplus and producer surplus as a measure of welfare and market efficiency. Students learn about welfare economics--the study of how the allocation of resources affects economic well-being--and will discover that under most circumstances, the equilibrium price and quantity is also the one that maximizes welfare. Students will review different sources of externalities and a variety of potential cures and will see that while markets are usually a good way to organize economic activity, governments can sometimes improve market outcomes. Students will see how the U.S. government raises and spends money and the difficulty of making a tax system both efficient and equitable. Assignment Steps Scenario: Imagine you have been assigned the responsibility of preparing a paper for the governor's next economic conference. Prepare a minimum 1,050-word (max 1100 words) paper addressing the following: (use APA in text citation) IntorductionThe each of the following as separate headlines (don't copy & paste the entire question summarize it)Explain why equilibrium of supply and demand is desirable.Explain the following concepts using the concept of consumer and producer surplus:Efficiency of marketsCosts of taxationBenefits of international tradeDiscuss how externalities may prevent market equilibrium and the various governments policies used to remedy the inefficiencies in markets caused by externalities.Analyze the difference between the efficiency of a tax system and the equity of a tax system as it refers to the costs imposed on taxpayers using the benefits principles.
