Suppose now (and note that this is very often the case in valuing benefits and costs of pollution and pollution abatement) that the government pollution control agency only was able to (accurately) evaluate a policy of getting X=3. The government is now considering whether to require policies leading to X=3 or remain at the status quo X=0 level. Assume that true benefits and costs are represented by (as in 3.1): LaTeX: B\left(X\right)\:=\:60X-3X^2B ( X ) = 60 X − 3 X 2 for benefits and LaTeX: C\left(X\right)=10X+2X^2C ( X ) = 10 X + 2 X 2 for costs. Based on this limited information, what should the government do? Does a policy that gets to X=3 improve net social benefit relative to the status quo of X=0? Is it efficient?
