If Tanisha had to pay for street cleaning on her own, how many street cleanings would there be?
Calculate the marginal social benefit of street cleaning. What is the optimal number of street cleanings?
Consider the optimal number of street cleanings. The last street cleaning of that number costs $9. Is Tanisha willing to pay for that last cleaning on her own? Is Ari willing to pay for that last cleaning on his own?
