The following model was applied to manage a coastal fishery:

Growth function: = , , thousand tons per year where x is effort, measured in number of boats

Cost function: = + , million $ per year

Fish price: P = 200 k$ / tonn [thousand $ per ton = $ per kg]

  1. Write function for sustainable revenue (R) and cost (C)
  1. Derive fleet size (numper of boats) at MSY and mark it on the figure.
  1. Derive fleet size at OA
  1. Derive fleet, catch and rent at MEY
  2. Now a tax is imposed on the fleet proportional to effort so that the cost function becomes: = + , + M$ / year

where k is the fee for each boat per year.

Determine the constant k in such a way that the fishery gives no rent in part d (except the tax to the public owner).

Don't need more info, it's ok i you can't solve this. you can just at least give me refund :)

OA is open access method is fishery economics, and the figure is something each one has to make.

this is the whole example. It's ok to refund
