Cost-benefit analysis
The market is monopolistic competition, so the competitive market allows free entry and exit of
firms which drives down profits, but companies are able to make some profit from brand
differentiation. The population of the U.S. is 307,000,000 and on average the producers make 557
cans per American per year.
So about 400 cans are made by the Coke and Pepsi industries. With their profits on that number of
cans the average profit per can is estimated 12 cents. Assume market price of a can is $1 so the
Marginal Cost of making the can is $.88.Profits = number of people X number of cans sold X profit
per can$150 billion dollars per year is spent on health care issues relating to obesity.
Half of that is borne by the taxpayer through Medicare and Medicaid.
So $75 billion is borne by the taxpayer. It has been found that sugary drinks are roughly 9% of the
