Suppose a farm that is polluting an underground water supply faces the following marginal costs for abating units of pollution:
1st unit abated, MC = $250
2nd unit abated, MC = $400
3rd unit abated, MC = $650
4th unit abated, MC = $950

The marginal benefit to society from this farm abating units of pollution are as follows:
1st unit abated, MB = $1000
2nd unit abated, MB = $800
3rd unit abated, MB = $650
4th unit abated, MB = $300

What is the socially optimal amount of pollution abatement for this farm?
