· A more educated population benefits society:

· lower crime rates: educated people have more opportunities, so less likely to rob and steal

· better government: educated people make better-informed voters

· People do not consider these external benefits when deciding how much education to “purchase”

· Result: market eq’m quantity of education too low

· How govt may improve the market outcome:

· subsidize cost of education

· 43 The types of private solutions to externality. Define the Coase theorem.

Types of private solutions:

· moral codes and social sanctions,
e.g., the “Golden Rule”

· charities, e.g., the Sierra Club

· contracts between market participants and the affected bystanders

The Coase theorem states that private parties can find efficient solutions to externalities without government intervention. The theorem states that if trade in an externality is possible and there are sufficiently low transaction costs, bargaining will lead to an efficient outcome regardless of the initial allocation of property. In practice, obstacles to bargaining or poorly defined property rights can prevent Coasian bargaining

The CoaseTheorem: An Example

Dick owns a dog named Spot. Negative externality: Spot’s barking disturbs Jane, Dick’s neighbor.

The socially efficient outcome maximizes Dick’s + Jane’s well-being. •If Dick values having Spot more than Jane values peace & quiet, the dog should stay.

Coase theorem: The private market will reach the efficient outcome on its own…

The CoaseTheorem: An Example

•CASE 1: Dick has the right to keep Spot. Benefit to Dick of having Spot = $500 Cost to Jane of Spot’s barking = $800

•Socially efficient outcome: Spot goes bye-bye.

•Private outcome: Jane pays Dick $600 to get rid of Spot, both Jane and Dick are better off.

•Private outcome = efficient outcome.

The CoaseTheorem: An Example

•CASE 2: Dick has the right to keep Spot. Benefit to Dick of having Spot = $1000 Cost to Jane of Spot’s barking = $800

•Socially efficient outcome: See Spot stay.

•Private outcome: Jane not willing to pay more than $800, Dick not willing to accept less than $1000, so Spot stays.

•Private outcome = efficient outcome.

The CoaseTheorem: An Example

•CASE 3: Benefit to Dick of having Spot = $500 Cost to Jane of Spot’s barking = $800 But Jane has the legal right to peace & quiet.

•Socially efficient outcome: Dick keeps Spot. •Private outcome: Dick pays Jane $600 to put up with Spot’s barking. •Private outcome = efficient outcome.

The private market achieves the efficient outcome The private market achieves the efficient outcome regardless of the initial distribution of rights.
