a. Explain why an externality is present in this situation.

b. Propose a Pigouvian tax to deal with the externality.

c. Some economists want to curb domestic gasoline consumption but are wary of giving the government substantially more revenues than it already has. As an alternative, Feldstein [ 2006b, p. A10] suggested a system of tradable gasoline rights ( TGR): “

In a system of tradable gasoline rights, the government would give each adult a TGR debit card. The gasoline pumps at service stations that now read credit cards and debit cards would be modified to read these new TGR debit cards as well. Buying a gallon of gasoline would require using up one tradable gasoline right as well as paying money. The government would decide how many gallons of gasoline should be consumed per year and would give out that total number of TGRs. In 2006, Americans will buy about 110 billion gallons of gasoline. . . . To reduce total consumption by 5%, [government] would cut the number of TGRs to 104.5 billion.” Draw a diagram to illustrate how the price of the tradable gasoline rights would be determined. Suppose that the market price per voucher were 75 cents. How would this change the opportunity cost of buying a gallon of gasoline?

Some studies have shown that in the United States, men spend more than women buying gifts and cards on Valentine’s Day. Suppose a researcher wants to test this hypothesis by randomly sampling nine men (sample1) and 10 women (sample 2) with comparable demographic characteristics from various large cities across the United States. Each study participant is asked to keep a log beginning one month before Valentine’s Day and record all purchases made for Valentine’s Day during that one-month period. . Use a 1% level of significance to test to determine if, on average, men actually do spend significantly more than women on Valentine’s Day. Assume that such spending is normally distributed in the population and that the population variances are equal.
