Positive and negative externalities of a factory?
Q. So, if a large factory is being built in a small town, how would the construction of this factory generate both a positive and negative externality. Please give like specific examples if you can. I'd greatly appreciate it!
Asked by Jillin G - Mon Mar 2 03:45:28 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Positives -- It would generate jobs with the construction of the factory within roughly a 1,000 mile radius of the town. There is a possibility of motels, stores and restaurants sales increasing for the out of town construction workers. It would generate jobs itself for the running of the factory within a 50 mile radius. The factory would need shipments, so therefore you have an added location for drops and pick ups for freight companies. Area banks would have an increase in clientele and local taxes would benefit from payroll and such. There is also a possibility of people moving to the town to be closer to their new job, and that could create new housing. Negatives -- The factory would have to go somewhere, more than likely that means… [cont.]

A. Though ECGRL offers some plausible answers, by my thinking the correct answer is that this will create neither a positive nor a negative externality, since no third party is likely to get much of a benefit or inccur much of a cost from this transaction.

A. If my neighbor buys a fire extinguisher, his house catches on fire and he uses the extinguisher to put it out there is a potential for positive externalities. Let's assume that if he did not buy the extinguisher his house would burn down, wind would blow the flames to my house and then cause my house to burn down. In this case my neighbor buying a fire extinguisher has a positive effect on me (namely my house doesn't burn down with his).

So all of listed things would be useless if nobody else would be able to use them (if they wouldn't be available for them).

negative and positive externalities?
Q. what are they?
Asked by Clarity. - Tue Jul 24 20:07:47 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. They are costs and benefits that accrue to other people who are not involved in what you are doing because of what you are doing. Let's say you are constructing an office building across the street from a group of sidewalk cafes. While the construction is in progress, the cafes will be negatively impacted, as noise and dust from the construction site drive away the customers. That would be a negative externality. When construction is complete, however, the cafes will gain a large number of new customers who will be working in the new building. That would be a positive externality.

A. A positive externality refers to a situation where a 3rd party (not the buyer or seller) gets a benefit from a transaction. An example would be if neighborhood association gets together and hires a private security company to patrol their neighborhood, the house right around the corner is less likely to be robbed even though the homeowner there didn't pay for the added security. The homeowner around the corner is receiving a benefit, so the hiring of the private security firm generates a positive externality. A negative externality results from a situation in which a 3rd party bears a cost. For example, if you decide to smoke and I'm sitting next to you, I have to breathe your second-hand smoke.
