(Figure: Output Levels II) The socially optimal output level could be achieved by a government quota of: Price ($) 100 80 60 40 20 0 SMC S = MC 100 200 300 400 500 Quantity of electricity 250 units of electricity. approximately 212 units of electricity. 175 units of electricity. 100 units of electricity.
Suppose supply is P= ―3 + (2/5)Qs and demand is P= 51 ― (1/10)Qd. Further, suppose that each unit carries a negative externality that costs someone in society $4. What is the socially optimal quantity, and how much would buyers need to pay and producers need to receive to achieve that outcome?
A system that employs saleable licenses that permit bearers to emit limited quantities of pollutants is called: cap and trade. emission standards. O pollution quotas. the marginal social benefit to producers.
A positive externality arises when a third party, outside the market transaction, fails to allocate resources efficiently Pays less for the good or service benefits from a market transaction pays a pollution tax to balance social costs
The government wants to address the pollution associated with the production of a good by introducing a tax on negative externality. The government is unsure about the magnitude of the negative externality (social cost of pollution) and hence it is considering two options: a high tax and a low tax option. Which statement(s) is/are true? Mark all that applies. Group of answer choices The government’s tax revenue will be higher under the high tax option. The government’s tax revenue may not be higher under the high tax options. The consumption level of the good may be lower under the high tax option. Regardless of whether the high tax or the low tax option is introduced, the cost of the tax is still lower than the social cost of pollution. Both high tax and low tax options are cost-effective in achieving a given level of pollution reduction as long as the same tax applies to all polluting sources. Only the high tax option is cost-effective.
Provide examples of environmental problems that can be solved with the Pigovian tax.
