Externalities can affect the socially optimal quantity in a market by causing a divergence between private costs and social costs. When externalities are present, the market may produce more or less than the socially optimal quantity, leading to inefficiency. This can result in overproduction or underproduction of goods and services, which can have negative impacts on society as a whole.
Externalities. A more proper definition for an externality is a transaction between two economic agents which affects a third, non-participating agent. Whether or not externalities are corrected for in a market is a matter of debate in economic theory.
internal environment includes things, situations and events that occur in the organization which effect the business in a positive or negative way. external environment includes things, situations and events that occur outside the organization, basically not in control by the organization,but effect the organization in a positive or negative way.
In economic theory, Pareto efficiency refers to a situation where resources are allocated in the most efficient way possible, maximizing overall societal welfare. Externalities are costs or benefits that affect parties not directly involved in a transaction. The relationship between Pareto efficiency and externalities is that externalities can lead to market inefficiencies and prevent the achievement of Pareto efficiency. This is because externalities can result in a misallocation of resources and a failure to account for the full costs or benefits of a transaction, leading to a suboptimal outcome for society as a whole.
ADDRESSING EXTERNALITIES: this involves a)social sanctions b)ethical/moral values c)voluntary organisations like charities d) contract between parties for addressing any arising externalities e) internalization which involves teaming up all activities with possible externalities at one firm so tht they do not arise
