1 Name: Date: 1. Given the general agreement that pollution is undesirable and social welfare is increased by reducing pollution, the optimal level of pollution in a society is: A) zero. B) the level that reduces the marginal social costs of pollution to zero. C) the level of pollution at which the marginal social cost of pollution is equal to the marginal social benefit of pollution. D) the level of pollution that minimizes the average total cost of producing the product that generates the pollution. 2. A market economy will produce without any government regulation. A) too little pollution B) too much pollution C) the socially optimal amount of pollution D) the amount of pollution that maximizes total surplus 3. A negative externality: A) is any cost above the economic cost. B) equals the social cost plus the firm's private cost. C) is an uncompensated cost imposed by an individual or firm on others.

B) subsidize Oscar's production of processed meat, since the market quantity is greater than the socially optimal quantity. C) subsidize Oscar's production of processed meat, since the market quantity is less than the socially optimal quantity. D) impose a tax on Oscar's production of processed meat, since the market quantity is greater than the socially optimal quantity. Page 1

If drivers decide to make phone calls without considering the costs imposed on others, the: A) number of phone calls made while driving will be more than the socially optimal quantity. B) number of phone calls made while driving will be fewer than the socially optimal quantity. C) marginal social cost curve will lie below the marginal cost of production curve. D) marginal social benefit curve will lie below the marginal social cost curve. 7. According to the Coase theorem, a market will when negative externalities are present. A) always reach an efficient solution B) reach an efficient solution if transaction costs are low C) reach an efficient solution only if the government intervenes in the market D) reach an efficient solution only if the negative externalities are offset by positive externalities Page 2
