ECO100 Writing Assignment 1 Version B http://www.thestar.com/opinion/editorials/2014/08/25/toronto_should_crack_do wn_on_loud_motorcycles_editorial.html Read the article at the link above. It discusses the noise pollution created by loud motorcycles in Toronto. In 1-‐2 pages, discuss and illustrate the market for noisy motorcycles. Based on our discussions of externalities, explain why you would agree or disagree with a policy similar to the one in Edmonton. Are there any other policies that could help achieve the optimal amount of noise pollution? This writing assignment should introduce the topic by identifying the key issues that apply to topics from class, include at least ¾ page of analysis, and end with a brief conclusion. A page of graphs/diagrams should be included at the end of your assignment. You can only submit one file, so the graphs need to be in the same file as the text. You can create any graphs electronically or draw them by hand and scan them in. I have found GraphSketcher for Mac to be a quick and easy way to create nice looking graphs on my Mac products; I am not sure if similar software exists for windows computers. You should not need to use any additional sources, but if you do use any sources, you need to make sure you properly cite them. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. In the top left corner you should include your name and student number. The written part of the assignment should be between 1-‐2 pages, with your page of graphs, 2-‐3 pages. It should be double-‐spaced, written in a 12-‐pt. font, have 1-‐inch margins, and be submitted as as .doc, .docx, or .pdf file to UTORsubmit (instructions provided), which will run your paper through Turnitin, and through Portal (so you can receive feedback).
