Which goods and services are best left to the market? And which are more efficiently and fairly provided as collective consumption goods by the state? This is at the heart of your revision of public goods. Central to your revision will be to understand why public goods may not be provided by the market. You can work this out by distinguishing between public and private goods and focusing on the ideas of rivalry and excludability in consumption. Students should understand the free rider and valuation problems – there are big debates in economics about the optimum size of the state. Rapid changes in technology are also changing the nature of what is and what is not a public good.

Externalities are spill-over effects from production and consumption for which no appropriate compensation is paid
Externalities lie outside the initial market transaction / price
Externalities cause market failure if the price mechanism does not take account of the social costs and benefits of production and consumption

Tutor2u - Government Intervention – Subsidiestutor2u
Exam questions involving drawing subsidy diagrams are typically found demanding by many students so please remember to revise this area of the course properly and get in lots of practise for this type of government intervention. If your analysis is accurate, you will frequently be given plenty of scope to critically evaluate the role of subsidies particularly when it comes to addressing different types of market failure. Strong evaluation understands the importance of elasticity in assessing the impact and also considers alternatives to subsidies by the government.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. STARTER
Define opportunity cost.
“There are limited resources relative to wants” is
the basis of which economic concept?
When are PPC’s drawn with straight lines?
When a PPF is bowed outwards what is it
showing?
3. PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY
All points on a PPC frontier show production
efficiency because at these points resources are
fully employed and put to their best possible use.
Consumer
Goods
Capital
Goods
4. ALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCY
The point which represents the combination of
goods that consumers want. By changing the
combination of goods you can not make somebody
better off without making somebody else worse
off. Consumer
Goods
Capital
Goods
5. PRODUCTION INEFFICIENCY
If the point is inside the PPC it is a production
inefficiency point. Not all resources are fully
utilised.
Consumer
Goods
Capital
Goods
6. CONDITIONS TO ACHIEVE
ALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCY
Consumer Sovereignty (The consumer knows
best)
Consumers are the best judge of what is good for
them.
7. Perfect Information
All consumers are well informed enabling them
to make sensible decisions.
CONDITIONS TO ACHIEVE
ALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCY
8. Perfect Mobility of Factors
Capital resources and human resources
Factors of production must shift into the
activities that best represent the consumers
wants and needs.
CONDITIONS TO ACHIEVE
ALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCY
9. Perfect Competition
Firms must be price takers
A homogeneous or identical product;
Numerous buyers and sellers, none large enough to
influence the price.
Freedom of entry or exit from the market.
CONDITIONS TO ACHIEVE
ALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCY
10. Fair income distribution
Let the market forces set the wage rates for
different professions.
High demand for doctors, low supply, so doctors
get a high wage.
There is a demand for supermarket workers, but
the high supply of potential supermarket
workers pushes the wage rate of supermarket
workers down.
11. No externalities
What about goods that incur costs or benefits to others?
Externalities.
The market won’t take account of the cost and benefit to
others so if externalities are present the market is not
allocative efficient.
Externality Cost to others Benefit to others
Pollution in a
river
Courtney takes
the bus to school
Drinking alcohol
Fishermen
down stream
Less congestion on
the road for
everyone else.
Damage to
property
12. No Public Goods
When price signals are not clear the market
breaks down.
The private sector won’t produce goods with
unclear price signals.
These goods are called public goods and the
market fails to produce these goods.
13. MARKET FAILURE
Those six conditions are not met so market
failure occurs.
New Zealand is currently at an inefficient point
inside the PPC where it is possible to make
somebody better off with out making others
worse off. Consumer
Goods
Capital
Goods
15. THE GOVERNMENT
If perfectly competitive markets are left on their
own they may fail to provide an efficient and fair
allocation of resources so the government steps
in.
16. ROLES OF THE GOVERNMENT
Regulatory role
Allocative role
Distributive role
Stabilisation role
17. REGULATORY ROLE
The rules that are established to make the
market system work effectively.
Employment Relations Act, Fair Trade Act and
the Consumer Guarantees Act.
18. ALLOCATIVE ROLE
The government must determine how some
resources are allocated.
Collective goods such as roads, education and
health.
19. DISTRIBUTIVE ROLE
The free market outcome results in an unfair
distribution of income, so the will intervene to
assure everyone has a sufficient income.
They do this through benefits, state housing and
educational courses.
20. STABILISATION ROLE
The government intervenes in the market to
ensure there is steady growth.
They do this through monetary and fiscal policy.
We have just seen the OCR drop from above 8%
down to 2.5% and it is now steadily rising again.
21. GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION
Taxes- a compulsory payment to the government.
Subsidy- a payment by government to firms to
keep costs low.
Transfer payments- a payment made by the
government with nothing in return.
23. PRIVATE GOODS
A private good is a good or service which a
person will be excluded from owning or using if
they do not pay for it.
Market forces achieve the best allocation of
resources, allowing consumer and producer
surpluses to be maximised.
24. CHARACTERISTICS OF PRIVATE
GOODS
Rival (depletable)- if one person consumes a good
the benefits of it are not available for others.
Excludable by price- Individuals can only
consume the good if they pay for it.
The market is good at producing private goods.
Firms are willing to produce goods that they can
charge for as this will generate profit.
25. PUBLIC GOODS
Price signals for public goods are non-existent
because the goods are non-excludable by price
and they are non-rival.
Once a public good is provided then it is
impossible to stop someone else using the good or
service. Individuals who do not pay can not be
excluded from using the public good.
Non-rival- If one person has the public good,
others can use it with no extra resources or cost
required.
26. MIXED GOODS
Mixed goods are goods that can be provided by
the government or the private sector. They have
a private aspect that can be marketed or sold.
27. THE FREE RIDER PROBLEM
When people refuse to contribute to the cost of
providing a public good on the grounds that once
it is provided no one can be excluded from using
it.
In this situation private producers will have no
incentive to produce the goods as they have no
way of charging for the product so they can’t
make a profit.

30. MERIT GOODS
A merit good is a good that society or the
government deems that people ought to have
because it is considered to be good, consumption
is encouraged.
The government may encourage consumption by
provide these goods free of direct charge, by
providing a subsidy or by compulsion.
31. DEMERIT GOODS
A demerit good is a good that government or
society deems to be harmful or bad for people.
The government may prohibit consumption or
impose taxes on goods.

33. COLLECTIVE GOODS
A collective good is a good provided by the
government that is free of direct charge paid for
by taxes.
Collective goods have an opportunity cost. The
more collective goods we have the less private
goods we have.
Collective goods should be provided up to the
point at which MSC=MSB
35. CHARGING FOR PUBLIC GOODS
Once a public good is provided it does not cost
any more for others to gain benefit through using
it.
Thus excluding people from using the good would
be inefficient.
E.g. Toll on bridge.
36. CHARGING FOR A PUBLIC GOOD

37. TAXES AND SUBSIDIES ON GOODS.
Governments can tax demerit goods and
subsidise merit goods.
