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

If this farm abates 4 units of pollution, what is the net benefit to society of the final unit of pollution abated?
◦ -$1150
◦ $650
◦ -$650
◦ $0
◦ $1150

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
