Why option C is true?Costs,Benefits €MNPBМЕСТаx tQpOutputTo internalize the external cost, the authorities have established pollution Tax 1 (per unit ofpollution). Which one of the following statements is true?a. Tax t is the Pigouvian pollution tax (as per this Figure).b. Tax t has been set too low and as a result leads to under-production.Tax t has been set too low and leads to over-production with marginal external cost d,that is higher than the optimum level.d. Tax t has been set too high and is leading to over-production with marginal externalcost d, that is higher than the optimum level.Why option C is true?

Only typed answer You are an industry analyst that specializes in an industry where the market inverse demand is P = 100 - 3Q. The external marginal cost of producing the product is MCExternal = 6Q, and the internal cost is MCInternal = 14Q. Instruction: Round your answers to the nearest two decimal places. a. What is the socially efficient level of output? units b. Given these costs and market demand, how much output would a competitive industry produce? units c.

Marginal Damages of Pollution: MD = 40 Marginal Abatement Cost: MAC = 100 -2Q e. Calculate and compare the change in welfare for Mr. Peabody's coal plant under the efficient tax and efficient subsidy (i.e. the difference in the plant's welfare under a tax (subsidy) compared to no policy at all).
Which of the following statements about pollution taxes, cap and trade, or command-and-control standards is FALSE? a.) Pollution taxes strictly control the amount of pollution but leave marginal abatement costs to be determined by the market. Cap-and-trade programs strictly control marginal abatement costs but leave the actual amount of pollution to be determined by the overall level of economic activity. b.) Pollution taxes are unpopular in the U.S. because American companies tend to dislike taxes in general. However, pollution taxes offer firms some greater certainty about how large will be their marginal cost of abatement on the last unit of abatement they will need to do, if they are to minimize the costs they incur both for cleanup and for pollution taxes. c.) Both command-and-control pollution standards, and cap-and-trade programs, can effectively limit the total amount of pollution, but command and control will be least-cost only by accident. Usually,…

Externalities: Suppose the daily inverse demand curve for gasoline in Portland is given by P = $100 – Q, the MC = 1.5Q, and the EMC = 1.5Q. Q is measured in thousands of gallons of gasoline per day. a. Graph the demand, marginal cost, and external marginal cost functions. b. How many gallons will be consumed per day if gasoline consumers do not consider the EMC of gasoline? c. How many gallons of gasoline will be consumed per day if gasoline consumers consider the EMC.
No hand written solution Afirm has an industrial plant that emits pollutants into a town’s lake. The plant’s marginal abatement function is MAC= 200 – 0.5E and damages caused by its emissions are given by MD = 2E where emissions are in kg. per day. What is the socially efficient level of emissions from this plant? Illustrate this in a graph. As an incentive to reduce emissions to the socially efficient level, government offers to pay the firm for each kg. of emissions it abates per day from this plant. What subsidy per kg. should the government offer? If the plant abates to the socially efficient level of emissions, what total subsidy payment would the firm receive? Identify the area in your graph. How much better or worse off would the firm be compared to if it did no abating? Identify the area in your graph. What would be the net benefit to society if we pay the firm to reduce the plant’s emissions to the socially efficient level? Identify this area in your graph.
Explain why, in the absence of governmental environmental regulation, competitive markets overproduce goods whose production involves the creation of negative externalities. Provide an example of a good that generates a negative externality.
