9. It's this question. The one where you're asked to find the areas and stuff. It's just like the question from the homework and most of the recent final exams. Here's the diagram: $400 MAC MD $240 $0 Tons of Emissions 80 120 A. If there's an emission fee that results in the optimal level of emissions, what will be the total amount of the fees paid? B. What's the total value of the damage done at the optimal level of emissions, and how does that compare to the fees paid? Does that seem right? C. What is the total abatement cost at the efficient level of emissions? D. Can you figure out what the dead weight loss would be if there were no regulation and emitters were free to emit as much as they wanted? It's a bit of algebra, sure, but give it a shot. Algebra is fun or something.

It’s common to think that reducing pollution is necessarily costly because to reduce pollution we need to tax firms who will then produce less. But can you think of one example in which pollution might not only be unpleasant but might actually reduce production?

Use a graph to illustrate the quantity of pollution that would be emitted (a) after a corrective tax has been imposed and (b) after tradable pollution permits have been imposed. Could these two quantities ever be equivalent?

Price 0 ABC D₂ Multiple Choice Quantity S₁ and D₁ represent the current market supply and demand, respectively. S2 and D2 represent the socially optimal supply and demand. One way that the government could shift demand to its socially optimal level is to tax the sellers subsidize the buyers. tax the buyers

When studying pollution and the environment, economists A) emphasize costs and benefits. B) attempt to reduce pollution at all costs. C) think pollution is good if it occurs when production takes place. D) have no role to play. E) concentrate on the physical aspects of the environment.
Macmillan Learning The accompanying graph depicts the marginal social cost (MSC) and marginal social benefit (MSB) of pollution emissions. Move the point, P, to the point representing the optimal level of pollution. What is the optimal quantity of pollution? metric tons The optimal quantity of pollution is not zero because: 1,000 Dollars 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 27 2 P 3 4 5 6 Metric tons of pollution 7 8 9 MSC MSB 10
A city currently emits 16 million gallons (MG) of raw sewage into a lake that is beside the city. The table below shows the total costs (TC) in thousands of dollars of cleaning up the sewage to different levels, together with the total benefits (TB) of doing so. Benefits include environmental, recreational, health, and industrial benefits. Emissions Total Cost Marginal Cost Total Benefit Marginal Benefit 16 MG Current N/A Current N/A 12 MG 50 800 8 MG 150 1300 4 MG 500 1650 0 MG 1200 1950 Complete the table. What is the optimal level of sewage for this city? How can you tell?
A local school administrator observes an increase in the number of flu cases in the public schools over the last two years. She is concerned that some families cannot afford flu vaccine and are therefore not having children vaccinated. She is also concerned that the failure to vaccinate some children is putting other children at risk, so she proposes that the state subsidize vaccines to increase coverage rates. a. Determine whether the failure to vaccinate some children is an external benefit or an external cost. If an external cost is present, move point A and point B to show the marginal social cost curve. If an external benefit is present, move point A and point B to show the marginal social benefit curve. Place point C at the equilibrium outcome. Place point D at the socially optimal outcome.
