make a graph that shows the marginal cost (MC), marginal revenue (MR), and marginal social benefit (MSB) curves, with and without internalization of the externality. The shaded area represents the profit.
What is an externality?
How do they affect market efficiency?
If an externality is present, where is the socially optimal point of production? Where will the market produce if there is no government intervention? How do we get from the private market equilibrium to the socially optimal one?
