A competitive industry has production processes that generate pollution. ok with studies carried out on the affected population, the marginal costs associated with contamination are constant and CU500. for each unit of the good produced. these costs are associated with lost workdays, illness treatment costs, and the nuisance generated in the population. Currently the production level of the industry is 250 units and the market price is 1,500 (MU/unit). Market studies carried out by companies estimate that if the price rises At 1,800 (mu/unit) the quantity demanded would fall to 200 units and the marginal cost of the production of each company in this new production level is 1,300 (m.u./unit). Assume linearity in market demand and in the marginal costs of production of the companies Graph to justify your answers. A)Determine the optimal production level from the perspective of the whole of the society. Show your result graphically.
