c) External costs in T-shirt production According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), it takes 2700 litres of water to produce one T-shirt. Water is used not only to grow cotton but also to dye clothing. Cotton growers use pesticides and chemicals that pollute the water. The pesticides and chemicals that remain in the environment harm animals and plant life. The WWF has been working with governments to help reduce this pollution. It advises them to introduce more regulation and to fine companies that pollute. Clothing manufacturers argue that this will add to their costs and mean they will supply less. This may mean they employ fewer people and will help reduce water pollution as less clothing is being manufactured. Fines will punish those that pollute while also earning the government revenue it can use to clean up the pollution. The fines must also be large enough to persuade firms to stop polluting. With reference to the information given in *External costs in T-shirt production' and…

One way governments can charge firms for pollution rights is by imposing a per-unit tax on emissions. A tax (or price in this case) of $ of sulfur dioxide emitted will achieve the desired level of pollution. per ton Now suppose the U.S. government does not know the demand curve for pollution and, therefore, cannot determine the optimal tax to achieve the desired level of pollution. Instead, it auctions off pollution permits. Each permit entitles its owner to emit one ton of sulfur dioxide per day. To achieve the socially optimal quantity of pollution, the government auctions off 125 million pollution permits. Given…
