Slope of a Line:o M = Change in Y over change in X o M = ΔY/ΔXo M = Y2-Y1/X2-X1- Net Benefit (NB):o NB = Total Benefit – Total Cost o NB = TB - TC- The optimal amount of any activity:o Is when the Marginal Benefit is equal to the Marginal Costo When MB = MC- Marginal Benefit (MB):o MB = Change in Total Benefit/Change in Quantityo MB = ΔTB/ΔQ o MB = (TB2-TB1)/(Q2-Q1)- Marginal Cost (MC):o MC = Change in Total Cost/ Change in Quantityo MC = ΔTC/ΔQ o MC = (TC2-TC1)/(Q2-Q1)- When to increase the amount of an activity (Production Possibilities Frontier):o If Marginal Benefit > Marginal Costo If MB > MC - When to decrease the amount of an activity (Production Possibilities Frontier):o If Marginal Cost > Marginal Benefit o If MC > MB - Labor Force (LF):o = Employed + Unemployedo = E + U- Market Equilibriumo When the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied. o Equilibrium: QD=QSMidterm 2:- Price Elasticity of Demand:o Elasticity (η) = % Change in Quantity Demanded / % Change in Priceo = %ΔQD / %ΔP-Midpoint Method to Calculating the Price Elasticity:o Percent Change in Quantity = [(New Quantity – Initial Quantity) / ((New Quantity + Initial Quantity) / 2)] x 100o %ΔQ = [(Q2 - Q1) / ((Q2 + Q1) / 2)] x 100o Percent Change in Price = [(New Price – Initial Price) / ((New Price + Initial Price) / 2)] x 100o %ΔP = [(P2 - P1) / ((P2 + P1) / 2)] x 1003- Price elasticity of supply:o Elasticity (η) = % change in quantity supplied / % change in priceo = %ΔQS / %ΔP- Cross elasticity of demand:o Elasticity (η) = % change in quantity demanded of a good / % change in the price of one of its substitutes or complements. o = %ΔQD / %ΔPS/C- Income elasticity of demand:o Elasticity (η) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in incomeo = %ΔQD / %ΔI- Total Revenue and the Price Elasticity of Demando Total Revenue (TR) = Total Expenditure (TE) = Price (P) x Quantity (Q)o TR = PQ or TE = PQ o Change in Total Revenue = Change in Price + Change in Quantity Demandedo ΔTR = ΔP + ΔQ- Consumer Surpluso Consumer Surplus (CS) = Marginal Benefit – Priceo CS = MB - P- Producer Surpluso Producer Surplus (PS) = Price – Marginal Costo PS = P – MC- Efficient Quantityo When Marginal Benefit = Marginal Costo When MB = MC- Market Equilibriumo When quantity demanded = quantity suppliedo Where QD = QS- Consumer Surpluso The marginal benefit from a good or service in excess of the price paid for it, summed over the quantity consumed o CS = MB / QD- Producer Surpluso The price of a good in excess of the marginal cost of producing it, summed over the quantity supplied. o PS = MC / QS- Total Surpluso The sum of producer surplus and consumer surplus. o TS = PS + CS- Deadweight Losso The Total Surplus of Efficient quantity and price (TSE) – the total surplus of the inefficient quantity and price (TSI)4o TSE- TSI- Marginal Social Benefito The sum of the marginal private benefit and the marginal external benefit. o MSB = MB + MEB- Marginal Social Costo The sum of the marginal private cost and the marginal external cost. o MSC = MC + MECMidterm 3:- Individual Transferrable Quotas (ITQ)o The marginal private cost with the ITQ equals the marginal social cost and the equilibrium with the ITQ is efficiento MC + Price of ITQ = MSC- Private Property Rightso The marginal cost of fishing equals the marginal social cost. o S= MC = MSC- Economic Profito = Total Revenue minus the total costo = (Price x Quantity) – (explicit costs + implicit costs)o = (PQ)- (EC+IC)o = (PQ) – (Total Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost)o = (PQ) – (TFC + TVC)- Total Costo = Explicit Costs + Implicit Costso = Total Fixed Cost + Total Variable Costo Opportunity Cost- Average Total Costo = Average Fixed Cost + Average Variable Costo = AFC + AVCo =Total Cost / Quantityo =TC / Q- Marginal Revenue Equals Priceo When an additional unit is sold, the increase in total revenue equals the price. o (ΔTR + ΔQ) = MR = P- Average Fixed Costo = Total Fixed Cost / Quantityo =TFC / Q- Average Variable Costo = Total
