Here, the Socially Optimal Quantity is given by the point of intersection of the Social Cost curve and the Social Value (Demand) Curve. Thus, Socially Optimal Quantity = Q2 and the size of the externality is P1-P3.

Price of electricity Demand QQ4 Quantity of electricity Coal burning utilities release sulfur dioxide and nitric acid which react with water to produce acid rain. Acid rain damages trees and crops and kills fish. Because the utilities do not bear the cost of the acid rain, they overproduce the quantity of electricity. This is illustrated in the Figure above.

Homework (Ch 10) 3. The effect of negative externalities on the optimal quantity of consumption Consider the market for bolts. Suppose that a hardware factory dumps toxic waste into a nearby river, creating a negative externality for those living downstream from the factory Producing an additional ton of bolts imposes a constant external cost of $140 per ton. The following graph shows the demand (private value) curve and the supply (private cost) curve for bolts. Use the purple points (diamond...
