The diagram below shows the marginal costs of pollution abatement for two firms, Firm 1 and Firm 2.

Short description: Two abatements versus cost graphs are plotted, comparing two firms numbered Firm 1 and Firm 2. Long description: In both graphs, the horizontal axis denotes abatement, ranging from Q subscript 1 through 7 in increments of 1. The vertical axis denotes dollars ranging from 0 to 60 in increments of 10. Firm 1: an increasing line M C subscript 1 is drawn starting at (0, 10), with a point marked. The point is (Q subscript 3, 30). Firm 2: an increasing line M C subscript 2 is drawn starting at (0, 30). The point marked on the line is (Q subscript 3, 50).

FIGURE 17-5
