Economic efficiency minimizing wasted effort or resources, in policy terms, maximizing net benefits
NB(Q)+TB(Q)-TC(Q), the efficient quantity Q* is where MM=MC


Equimarginal principle (MC=MB) net benefits are maximized where marginal benefit equals marginal cost, for
pollution abatement, this is Q*


Opportunity cost what you give up by doing one thing and not the other, the forgone benefit of the
next-best alternative


WTP the maximum amount a person is just barely willing to pay for something: the basis
for measuring benefits, used for gains


WTA the minimum compensation a person requires to give something up, the natural
measure for losses, WTA>WTP, the gap widens as the stakes rise
