Answer: 16 units more than social optimum.
DWL = dead weight loss = (1/2)*(Q* - Q°) 12 =96
Explanation:
Q=1200 - 4P and Q=-240 + 2P
In a free market quantity demand =quantity supplied
1200 -4P = -240 +2P
P =240
Sub P
Q* = 240
Socially optimal quantity is
Marginal social benefit (MSC)= marginal social cost(MSC), including external damage =MEC
MPC= marginal private cost =inverse of supply function
MPC = (1/2)*Q + 120
MEC=12
MSC =(MPC +MEC) = (1/2)Q +120 +12
MSC= MPB where MPB is marginal private benefit = inverse of demand functn
MPB = 300 -(1/4)Q
(1/2)Q + 132 =300 - (1/4)Q
Q° = 224
Difference btw Q* & Q° = 16 units more than social optimum.
DWL = dead weight loss = (1/2)*(Q* - Q°) 12 =96
Answer:

Answer:
C. Insurance expense will increase $2,250
Explanation:
On April 1 2016, the following journal entry will be recorded in respect of the premium paid on a one year insurance policy:
Debit Credit
Prepaid Insurance $3,000
Cash $3,000
The year end given in this question is December 31, 2016 and the insurance premium is for one year and since the insurance premium is paid on April 1, 2016, therefore, only expense in respect of 9 months i.e. from April 1, 2016 to the December 31, 2016 will be recognised in this year. Remaining expense of three months will be recognised in the Year ended December 31,2017.
The following Journal entry will be recorded in respect of insurance expense in accounts on December 31, 2016.
Debit Credit
Insurance expense(3,000*9/12) 2,250
Prepaid Insurance 2,250
So the answer will be C. Insurance expense will increase $2,250
