Consider a community consisting of 20 households who depend on a common well for its supply of water. Clean-up and chemical treatment is required to ensure safety of water from the well. The marginal benefits to each household from clean-up and treatment is given by the equation,

MBx=100-4X

If the marginal clean-up and treatment cost is 100 + 20X where X represents the number of clean-ups and chemical treatment per year,

1. Determine the social optimal number of clean-ups and chemical treatment per year.

2. Compute the net social welfare benefit to each household if the households share the cost of clean-ups and treatment

3. Compute the total social welfare benefit to each household if half of the households pay half the cost of clean-ups and treatment

4. Compute the amount of free riding from the two groups in 3 above
