The diagram below shows the marginal cost of pollution abatement for two firms, Firm X and Firm Y.



FIGURE 17-4

Refer to Figure 17-4. Suppose the government requires each firm to reduce pollution by the same amount, QR. The result will be


◦ fair and just because both firms are facing the same requirements.
◦ economically inefficient because Firm Y is then abating pollution at a higher marginal cost than Firm X.
◦ economically efficient because the maximum amount of pollution will be abated.
◦ economically inefficient because Firm X is not producing as much pollution as Firm Y and therefore should not be faced with the same requirements.
◦ economically efficient because even though their marginal costs of abatement differ, the marginal cost for the last unit of abatement is equal.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
