4. Externalities - Definition and examples An externality arises when a firm or person engages in an activity that affects the well-being of a third party, yet neither pays nor receives any compensation for that effect. If the impact on the third party is detrimental, it is called a externality. The following graph shows the demand and supply curves for a good with this type of externality. The dashed drop lines on the graph reflect the market equilibrium price and quantity for this good. Shift one of the curves to reflect the presence of the externality. If there are external costs of production, then you should shift the supply curve to reflect the social costs of producing the good; similarly, if there are external benefits from production, then you should shift the demand curve to reflect the social benefits from consuming the good. PRICE (Dollars per unit) QUANTITY (Units) Supply Demand Demand Supply With this type of externality, in the absence of government intervention, the…
