inefficient overproduction
Marginal cost is total cost/quantity Marginal benefit is total benefit/quantity
Marginal net benefits= Marginal benefit- Marginal cost
Marginal Benefit curve is usually downward sloping, while Marginal Cost is usually upward sloping.
marginal cost influences the buyer of the house. If the marginal benefit surpasses or even equal with the marginal cost, the buyer normally decides to buy the house.

when marginal benefit is equal to marginal cost To be more specific: When the marginal damage cost of polluting is equal to the marginal abatement cost of polluting (or the marginal benefit of polluting, which is equivalent to the MAC)
Marginal net benefits= Marginal benefit- Marginal cost
Marginal net benefits= Marginal benefit- Marginal cost
Microeconomics, which determines much of the business decision process, looks to the margin for much of its data. What is the marginal cost of producing one more piece of output? What is the marginal cost of hiring one more employee? What is the marginal benefit of opening another store? In other words, the business decision process is not concerned with the total cost of producing all its units as much as producing just one more. In this sense, the margin is the derivative of the total cost. When the marginal benefit of something is greater than the marginal cost, the action will be followed. If the marginal cost is greater, it will not be. A company will produce more output until marginal benefit is equal to marginal cost. To maximize profits, the decisions of a company need to be made based upon this knowledge and some very complex calculus to find just want marginal costs and benefits of any given action are.

benefit exceeds its marginal cost.
when the marginal benefit of consumption is equal to the marginal cost of production.
When output is less than the efficient level, the amount consumers are willing to pay equals the cost of production. the cost of production is greater than the price consumers are willing to pay. the marginal cost of producing the good must be greater than the marginal benefit from the good.
Three important cases: Total productive surplus is maximised at consumer equilibrium. Total profit is maximised when marginal cost = marginal benefit. Social welfare is maximised where marginal social cost = marginal social benefit.
