Scenario 10-3
​
Suppose the equation for the demand curve in a market is P = 120 - (1/5) Q^D , where Q^D is the quantity demanded and $P$ is the price. Also, suppose the equation for the supply curve in the same market is P = (1/10) Q^S , where Q^S is the quantity supplied.
-Refer to Scenario 10-3. Suppose there is an external cost of $12 associated with the production of each unit of the good. What is the social cost of producing 30 units of the good?
