The problems with e.g."Acid rain" created by emissions of sulfur dioxide has been onemajor problem in Sweden, not least because emissions have occurred in other countries (eg England and Denmark) andthen transported here. Now assume that if one tonne of sulfur is emitted in England, it results in one (1) gram of sulfur deposition in Sweden. The corresponding deposit of one tonne of sulfur emissions in Denmark is assumed to be 3 grams. Suppose further that The socio-economic damage of one gram of sulfur deposit can be estimated at SEK 0.10.The marginal cost of reduce sulfur emissions in England is estimated at Z SEK per tonne, and in Denmark the equivalent is estimatedcost to 2Z SEK per tonne. Z indicates here the emission reduction in tonnes (eg in Denmark it would cost SEK 4 toreduce emissions by two tonnes). In other words, Z = 0 corresponds to the emission level where there is no reductionemissions occur. a) Suppose now that the European Union decides that Denmark and England…
During your first month as an employee atGreenfield Industries (a large drill-bit manufacturer),you are asked to evaluate alternatives forproducing a newly designed drill bit on a turningmachine. Your boss’ memorandum to you haspractically no information about what the alternativesare and what criteria should be used. The same taskwas posed to a previous employee who could notfinish the analysis, but she has given you the followinginformation: An old turning machine valued at $350,000exists (in the warehouse) that can be modified for thenew drill bit. The in-house technicians have givenan estimate of $40,000 to modify this machine, andthey assure you that they will have the machine readybefore the projected start date (although they havenever done any modifications of this type). It is hopedthat the old turning machine will be able to meetproduction requirements at full capacity. An outsidecompany, McDonald Inc., made the machine sevenyears ago and can easily do the same…

The marginal benefit of being able to emit a ton of sulphur dioxide emissions for twofirms are given by:MBX = 320 – ( Ex / 3 )MBY = 500 – ( Ey / 2 )Note that these marginal benefit figures can be interpreted as marginal cost of abatingemission down to levels Ex and Ey.Government regulators want to reduce total sulfur dioxide emissions to a total of 1200tons.a) If the government imposes the same standard of 600 tons maximum emissions onboth firms what would be the total cost of abatement (calculated as the aggregatedmarginal benefits forgone)?b) If the government distributed 600 tradable pollution permits to each firm whatwould be the final allocation of these permits after the firms trade them? Whatwould be the total cost of abatement in this latter case?
