Question:

2. Suppose UNOS alters its guidelines for the allocation of donated kidneys. It will no longer rely solely on the concept of “net benefit” but also give preference to patients with young children. If “total surplus” in this case is defined as the total life span of kidney recipients, is this new guideline likely to reduce, increase, or leave total surplus unchanged? How might you justify this new guideline?
