Answer to Question 1

The market demand curve is also the marginal social benefit curve. The market demand curve shows the maximum price that consumers are willing to pay to buy another unit of the good. Marginal social benefit is the value of one more unit of a good, which equals the maximum price that people are willing to pay to get it. So the market demand curve is the marginal social benefit curve.
