Activity 1: Midterm Review
This section there will be an open review. We will go over various questions from the midterm that students struggled
with, or ones that I think were left out from workshop and/ or the mock midterm.
Activity 2: Externalities
For each of the scenarios below, answer the following questions:
** Use graphs/ pictures to help depict your answers!
1. Does an externality exist? If so classify it as positive or negative (or both?)
2. If an externality exists, determine whether or not the Coast Theorem applies
3. If an externality exists and the coast theorem does NOT apply, argue which of the government’s tools are best
suited to address the issue: quality regulation, taxes/ subsidies, tradable permits etc.
