Action No Recycling Recycling Chemical Lab (Dollars) 2,400 2,100 Profit Water Park (Dollars) 1,100 1,900 Total (Dollars) Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is When the chemical lab uses the recycling method, the water park earns $1,900 - $1,100 = $800 more per week than it does with no recycling. Therefore, the water park should be willing to pay up to $800 per week for the chemical lab to recycle water. However, the recycling method decreases the chemical lab's economic profit by $2,400 - $2,100 = $300 per week. Therefore, the chemical lab should be willing to use the recycling method if it is compensated with at least $300 per week. Suppose the water park has the property rights to the lake.
