The specifications on an electronic component in a target-acquisition system are that its life must be between 5000 and 10,000 h. The life is normally distributed with mean 7500 h. The manufacturer realizes a price of $10 per unit produced; however, defective units must be replaced at a cost of $5 to the manufacturer. Two different manufacturing processes can be used, both of which have the same mean life. However, the standard deviation of life for process 1 is 1000 h, whereas for process 2 it is only 500 h. Production costs for process 2 are twice those for process 1. What value of production costs will determine the selection between processes 1 and 2?

4. suppose that pollution in a neighborhood comes from two factories, with marginal benefit curves given by mb1 = 12 – p1 and mb2 = 8 – p2. the level of pollution in the neighborhood is given by p = p1 + p2. the government wants to limit pollution by instituting a pollution-rights market. the government’s desired level of p is 10, so it prints 10 pollution rights and offers them for sale to the firms.a)find the equilibrium selling price of a pollution right, as well as the allocation of rights (and hence pollution levels) across the two factories. b)repeat part (a) for the case where the government’s desired level of pollution equals 14. c)comment on the usefulness of a pollution rights market in achieving efficient levels of pollution abatement.
