Define public goods
Use the graph attached below as a starting point (either download it or print it out). Add curves, labels, etc. to this graph in order to show the following: 1. Show that this good has a $4/unit negative externality (external cost), such as pollution. 2. Shade the area that represents the Deadweight Loss (lost gains from trade) caused by the external cost. 3. Show a tax or subsidy wedge (whichever you think is appropriate) that will solve the problem of the external cost. 4. Show the socially optimal level of production that the Pigouvian tax or subsidy above will help the market to achieve. You may use software or pencil and paper to complete this graph. Upload it here when you are done.

What are “public goods”? Pick a government good/service that you consume, define what makes it a public good (how is its non-rival and non-excludable). As we discussed in class, the existence of externalities creates an efficiency problem in the provision of these goods and services. Unlike the private sector, State and Local Governments can intervene. Using the example of the public good, you have provided, please provide an example of an externality that will impact its provision, and detail how a government could/should intervene.
