,JUNE JULY 2021 PORTFOLIO
Assignment 04 (E-portfolio)
Provide a one-paragraph biography and photo, if possible, of yourself under the
heading biography.
Under the heading reflective journal answer the following questions:
1. “Health care should be a public good”. In your arguments for and against, show the
characteristics of private versus public goods clearly.
2. “Discuss or reflect on inequality and poverty and the impact of personal income tax-
funded cash transfers on work effort, also during the Covid-19 pandemic in South
Africa.”
3. “An ad valorem excise duty on crayfish sales would be fair.” Do you agree? Explain
your answer using partial and general equilibrium analysis. Is such a tax
progressive, proportional or regressive? (Hint: Crayfish is considered to be a luxury
product but what is the status of the people who mostly work in processing plants
for crayfish?)
4. “More than half of South Africa’s municipalities are in dire financial health unable to
provide essential public goods.” Critically discuss the Tiebout model as an explanation
for a market-like solution to the efficient provision of local public goods.
We allow a maximum of 2000 words for the four answers. Use your research activities done
during the semester on Lesson 1-11 to substantiate your answers. This will include relevant
parts from the textbook and sources from the Unisa library and Google Scholar. You need to
use the Harvard method of referencing in your citations and reference list (see the video clip,
lesson 1, and library guides on this). Make sure that it is a typed submission, align right-hand
margins and it is your original work (not copied or plagiarised without citing sources). Use
Grammarly.com online to check your grammar (South African English). You can submit your
written assignment as a pdf file on MyUnisa, where you usually upload essay assignments.
The due date is 23 July 2021 for ECP students and 20 August 2021 for the rest of the ECS3704
class. The rubric below should serve as a marking guide in doing the assignment.

QUESTION 1
1. “Health care should be a public good”. In your arguments for and against, show
the characteristics of private versus public goods clearly.
Definition of a public good
In economics, a public good refers to a commodity or service that is made available to all
members of a society. Typically, these services are administered by governments and paid
for collectively through taxation. Societies will disagree about which goods should be
considered public goods; these differences are often reflected in nations’ government
spending priorities. An important issue that is related to public goods is referred to as the
freerider problem. Since public goods are made available to all peopleregardless of whether
each person individually pays for themit is possible for some members of society to use the
good despite refusing to pay for it. People who do not pay taxes, for example, are
essentially taking a "free ride” on revenues provided by those who do pay them, as do
turnstile jumpers on a subway system. It is therefore paramount access health system
guided by the above background.
Pure public characteristics
Norrivalry
1) Indivisible, one person's consumption does not reduce the quantity available (MC=0).
2) Excluding anyone from consuming a nonrival good is Paretoinefficient.
