Spontaneous ( or emergent order ) :

Society that is the result of human

How are prices determined ?
Why do they change ?
How do they affect market activity ?
* When the price of a
good goes up , people
want to
buy less of it
Law of Demand :
The price of a

Cease Theorem : The socially efficient Outcome
to an
externality program will be reached privately
if transaction costs are low , regardless of the
initial assignment of property rights
Transaction Costs :
the costs incurred in
making an
economic
exchange ( e.
g. time
,
contracting , litigation
Costs )
Property Rights :
Entitlements which holders Cannot
be forced to give up
Liable :
legally responsible to compensate another
party for
damages
Socially efficient outcome ( Coasian Framework ) :
Final assignment of property rights that maximizes
net benefits ( benefits -
costs )
Example :
Factory { Farmer # 1
-
cost of pollution reducing technology
=
$95,000
-
1,000 farmers
-
average Cost of pollution =
$1001 farmer
Socially efficient outcome :
factory adopts technology
95,000<100,000
1000 .
100
Property Rights Property Rights
Protect Farmers :
Protect Factory
:
Outcome :
adopt Outcome :
additional
the technology pollution if transaction
costs are
large
K Transaction costs can be prohibitively high in some
cases so the initial assignment of
property rights is
important for efficiency
Example :
Farmer { Railroad # 1
Cost of barrier =
$1,2001 year
Cost of Crop damage
=
$5001
year
Socially efficient outcome :
Crops burn
ZERO TRANSACTION COSTS
Property rights protect railroad
Outcome :
Crops burn ,
no
payment between parties
Property rights protect farmer
Outcome :
payment between $500 E $1200 to farmer
* The initial assignment of property rights affects
potential payments /
agreements between parties
even when transaction costs are low
Example :
Farmer { Railroad # 2
Cost of barrier =
$10001
year
Cost of Crop damage
=
$20001
year
Socially efficient outcome :
barrier is built
HIGH TRANSACTION COSTS
Property Rights Property Rights
Protect Farmers :

:
Outcome :

The people who value the resource the most end up using
the resource
Efficiency is based on ability to
pay in addition to
fundamental evaluation

Industrial Organization
Industrial Organization ( 10 ) :
the study of the strategic
behavior of firms , regulatory and antitrust policy ,
and market Competition
Oligopoly : a market Structure dominated by a few
firms
Monopoly :
a
single entity producing a
good or service
with no close substitutes
Sources of Monopoly ( Market ) Power :
•
patents , copyrights ,
trademarks
•
access to rare resource ( e.
g .
DeBeers
'
diamonds )
•
production process
-
high fixed costs ( utilities )
•
innovation (
e.g. iPod )
•
tastes
•
government ownership ( e. g .
USPS )
Natural Monopoly

a
monopoly with decreasing average

Average Cost Pricing :
Regulating a monopolist To price
at
average cost
In long run , monopolist probably Will not exit market
because still making accounting profit E making as
much as in 2nd best alternative
K Can't know accounting profit from graph
↳
accounting profit will always be greater than
economic profit ; so if economic profit =O ,
then
accounting profit is positive

Marginal Cost ( Plus )
Pricing
:
regulating a monopolist
to price at
marginal cost ,
which requires a subsidy
to the firm in Order to Cover fixed costs
If P =
20 ,
ATC =
28
profit =
20 .
80 -
28 .
80 = -
$6400
If the monopolist is regulated to price at marginal
cost ( Without subsidy ) ,
the firm Will exit in The
long run because it is making negative economic
profit
Cons of ATC Pricing :
-
low quality products
-
firm doesn't have incentive to cut Costs
If entry occurs :
.
Competitive effect :
entry increases price competition
which leads to a
greater overall quantity C total
surplus increases )
•
cost effect :
firms individually Will produce less
which increases
average costs reduces surplus
Characteristics of Monopolistic Competition
-
large amount of buyers sellers
} same as perfect
-
low barriers to entry 's exit Competition
-
differentiated products
In the long run in monopolistic competition ,
•
If short run economic profits are positive
↳ increased entry
↳ reduced demand for individual firms
↳ reduced profits
•
If short run economic profits are negative
↳ increased exit
↳↳
increased demand for
remaining individual firms
increased profits
In
long run ,
in monopolistic competition E perfect
Competition ,
economic profits are zero

Markets da Demand Unregulated markets can give the best outcome Spontaneous ( or emergent order ) : a phenomenon in Society that is the result of human action but not human design- prices companies must set prices in an attempt to find the perfect price based on economic activity - ex : language How are prices determined ? Why do they change ? How do they affect market activity ? * When the price of a good goes up , people want to buy less of it Law of Demand : The price of a good or service is inversely related to the quantity demanded Demand : the relationship between the price of a good or service 4 the quantity demanded Quantity Demanded Price price ( P ) 200 - •• Tickets 42 200 iso - • 42 150 52 100 ioo - • 77 50 ← Dencaurnvde 86 0 so - • If a demand curve is o •, Quantity downward sloping , it 412 154 717 86 ( Q ) satisfies the law of demand
