In this chapter we focus on policy implications resulting from our analysis. For this reason a cost-benefit analysis for each of the three AD programs is conducted to identify whether a program’s benefits exceed its cost. A posi-tive net social benefit indicates that a program is worthwhile.

1994Because of the growing complexity of economic activity, externalities can be a major cause of market failure.
