In the presence of uncertainty about a polluting industry’s marginal abatement cost curve, under what circumstances would an environmental regulator be likely to make a smaller error in setting a quantity constraint than an emission fee? Explain why. Feel free to use a diagram to help answer this question.
This is an example of negative exterrnality of production. It is clear that Marginal social cost is. more than marginal private cost.
This externality can be corrected mainly in two ways: Taxing output or taxing emission levels.
Taxing emission internalizes the externality as firm will be forced to control the pollution. Output can be taxed but companies can pass tax burden to consumers if demand is inelastic.
There will be less error if exact between Qopt (Optimum quanity for society) and Qm (Actual market output) is known.
Amount of tax, elasticty of demand and actual gap output knowledge will help in minimising this negative externality.

1. The following figure shows the marginal abatement cost curve of a polluting firm. The status quo level of SO2 emissions of the firm is 100 tons. Suppose the government is targeting 50 tons of emissions from this firm. The government can achieve this target by setting emission standard of 50 tons or by imposing an emission tax t per ton of emission. The authority allows the source to choose between the standard and the tax t. Would the firm...
Please read the article and answer about questions. You and the Law Business and law are inseparable. For B-Money, the two predictably merged when he was negotiat- ing a deal for his tracks. At other times, the merger is unpredictable, like when your business faces an unexpected auto accident, product recall, or government regulation change. In either type of situation, when business owners know the law, they can better protect themselves and sometimes even avoid the problems completely. This chapter...

What an Executive Summary Is
An executive summary is a specific type of document that does
two things: it summarizes a research article, and it offers

indicated in the Pearson handbook.
