is initially abating Q units of pollution. Suppose that a system of tradeable pollution permits is introduced into this market and the equilibrium permit price is P* Firm B will sell permits to Firm A because OA. Firm A has lower costs of pollution abatement than Firm B. OB. Firm B's total cost of abating more pollution (area 1) is less than the revenue it earns from selling the permits (areas 5+3). OC. Firm B's total cost of abating more pollution (areas 3+1) is less than the revenue it earns from selling the permits (areas 5+3+1). OD. Firm B can buy the permits at a lower price than Firm A OE. the revenue Firm B earns from selling permits (areas 3+1) is greater than the cost it incurs from abating more pollution (area 1).

The accompanying diagrams show the marginal costs of pollution abatement for two firms, Firm 1 and Firm 2. If the government requires each firm to abate Q units of pollution, the social costs of this abatement OA. could be reduced further if Firm 2 increased abatement and Firm 1 reduced its abatement by the same amount OB. could be reduced further if each firm was required to abate more. OC. could be reduced further if each firm was allowed to pollute more. OD. would be minimized. WOE could be reduced further if Firm 1 increased abatement and Firm 2 reduced its abatement by the same amount.

The diagram to the right illustrates a competitive industry in which there is a negative production externality. If a tax equal to $20/unit (i.e., a tax equal to the marginal external cost) is imposed, then the net social benefit will OA. fall by area A+ C. OB. rise by area B+C. OC. fall by area C. OD. rise by area B. OE. None of the above. W Marginal Benefit, Marginal Cost ($) 50 MCS MCp 45 35 30- 25 20 15 10- 5 0- 0 B D 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 Quantity -6°C Mostly clear Next
