Researchers have estimated the MDF and MAC curves for the emissions to be the following: MDF = 4E and MAC = 125 – E Policymakers have decided to implement an emissions tax to control pollution. They are aware that a constant per-unit tax of $100 is an efficient policy. Yet they are also aware that this policy is not politically feasible because of the large tax burden it places on the firm. As a result, policymakers propose a two- part tax: a per unit tax of $75 for the first 15 units of emissions an increase in the per unit tax to $100 for all further units of emissions With an emissions tax, what is the general condition that determines how much pollution the regulated party will emit?
