Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If a firm can freely dump unwanted by-products without any costs, it means that they do not have to pay for disposal or pollution control measures. As a result, they are not financially motivated to find alternative uses or recycling methods for those by-products. Therefore, they have no economic incentive to find uses for them.
