Four electric companies, Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta, burn coal to produce electric power. As you may imagine, this type of production will result in the productions of emissions, The table below describes emissions by each company as well as costs of reducing emissions.
Alpha Beta Gamma Delta Current production of emissions in tons 150 300 450 600 Cost of reducing emissions by first 50 tons $20 56 $25 $7 I Cost of reducing emissions by second 50 tons $25 $12 $31 $8 Cost of reducing emissions by third $30 $18 $39 $9 50 tons
50 tons Cost of reducing emissions by fourth 50 tons (no emissions left) $24 $49 $10 Cost of reducing emissions by fifth 50 tons (no emissions left) $30 $51 $11
The goal of the government is to reduce emissions by one third with this scheme. Assume the companies plan to adhere to this goal. Answer the questions below using the information in the table. Alpha will reduce emissions by Blank 1 and will cost the company $Blank 2 Beta will reduce emission by Blank 3 and will cost the company $Blank 4 Gamma will reduce emissions by Blank 5 and will cost the company $Blank 6 Delta will reduce emissions by Blank 7 and will cost the company $Blank 8
