Assume there is uncertainty about the costs of disposing of the waste: there is a fifty-fifty chance
Question:
Assume there is uncertainty about the costs of disposing of the waste: there is a fifty-fifty chance that they will be $10,000 or $30,000. Discuss how this uncertainty affects the cost- benefit calculation, if the government is risk neutral (i.e., that it requires no risk premium to compensate it for bearing risk) or very risk averse (i.e., that it requires a large risk premium to compensate it for bearing risk).
