During а recent trip tо Austrаliа, I learned tо play the didgeridоo. When I got home, I started a side hustle giving didgeridoo lessons to local elementary school students. The more students I teach, the more money I can earn, and the more instruments I need to acquire and maintain. In addition, if I teach more than two students, the noise starts to bother my neighbor across the street, who works from home. Number of Students Tutoring Revenue Tutoring Expenses Disutility to Neighbor 1 $1,000 $550 $0 2 $2,000 $1,000 $0 3 $3,000 $1,600 $200 4 $4,000 $2,300 $400 5 $5,000 $3,200 $600 A. What is the efficient number of students for me to teach? Why? B. Suppose that I'm entitled to make as much noise as I want, and my neighbor has no legal remedy. How many students does the Coase Theorem predict I'll teach? Why? In the absence of a negotiated agreement with my neighbor, how many students would I teach? C. Now suppose my neighbor is entitled to an injunction preventing me from teaching more than two students. How many students does the Coase Theorem predict I’ll teach? Why? In the absence of an agreement with my neighbor, how many students would I teach? If I approach my neighbor and ask if I can pay him to allow me to teach more students, what are each of our threat points? What are the gains from cooperation if we bargain to the efficient outcome? If my neighbor and I split the gains from cooperation evenly, how many students would I end up teaching, and how much would I pay him? D. Now suppose that a damages rule is in effect. How many students would I choose to teach? Why? I could reduce the harm to my neighbor by soundproofing my didgeridoo studio, but it’s currently too expensive to be worthwhile. Which type of damages – temporary or permanent – would make me more likely to soundproof in the future, if new technology reduces the cost of soundproofing? Why?
