Assume thаt the five firms in the fоllоwing tаble eаch emit 5 units оf pollution into the environment. The cost of eliminating these units of pollution, according to each firm, is given in the table. Table 4 MARGINAL Cost of Eliminating Pollution Tons of Pollution Firm A Firm B Firm C Firm D Firm E 1st 100 140 150 200 2000 2nd 200 580 200 240 3000 3rd 900 680 250 440 4000 4th 1300 980 300 640 5000 5th 1700 1280 350 840 6000 The government plans to reduce pollution through a permit system, where each permit allows the firm to pollute one ton. Suppose the government desires to reduce pollution by exactly 6 units (so 19 units are still polluted). What is a price they can charge for a pollution permit to achieve this? The correct answer will lie within a certain range. Entering any number within that range will be counted as correct.
