Q2

Raising the price of liquor in Primary Market increases the demand of alcohol-free beverage in Secondary Market. However consumer surplus of secondary market does not change because those who move from primary market to secondary market they are indifferent. So, CS = 0 SB =

External Cost = (100300-100200) 0 = 10000

SC = Private variable cost +

SS = SB - SC = 10000 10000 = 0
