Negative.
Externality - Negative Externality And Positive Externality the positive externality is a cause of a market failure because producers do not take the benefits of externality into account to society, therefore they under-produce the good that generates it , a negative externality happens where MSC > MSB. Factor Immobility And Market Power .
Externalities is a result of a certain set of things that happen in our world that impact people in either a positive or a negative way. Such as the pollution that some factories emit during the production process. The pollution emitted is a negative externality that effects the people.
In the presence of an externality (positive or negative), individual economic actors produce a socially inefficient amount of a good (since they do not include social gains or costs in their calculations). Thus, in general, when there is a Negative externality, firms are overproducing a good with a social cost and thus the optimal equilibrium occurs at decreased production. Positive externality, firms are underproducing a good with a social benefit and thus the optimal equilibrium occurs at increased production.
Perhaps the best definition suited to the economic term of externality is the uncompensated impact of one person's actions on the welfare of a bystander. Should the effect be beneficial, it is termed positive externality, and the reverse is naturally negative externality. Using economic language, it can be said that markets maximize total surplus to both buyers and sellers. This is a "norm" and reflective of efficient markets. In the case of a market not providing efficient markets, government policy may be needed to improve efficiency. Negative externalities may be pollution from exhaust and factory emissions. Positives may be research into new technologies.
Spillover costs (Negative externality):nproduction or consumption costs inflicted on a third party without compensation nExample: environmental pollution Spillover benefits (Positive externality):nproduction or consumption of certain goods and services may confer external benefits on third party or the community at large without compensating payment nExample: education
False; noise pollution form a race track is not an example of positive externality. It is more likely an example of negative externality.
It can be either positive or negative.

Air pollution is negative

An externality is an effect of a decision on a third party not taken into account by the decision maker. One example that comes to mind is a new business opening in an area. The decision of where to place a new Wal-Mart is an important decision for the company. But in the course of making that decision, they will not consider every alternative. For example, some of the other businesses in the area may experience larger sales because Wal-Mart will bring more people to the area. An externality can be positive or negative. A negative externality is negative when the decision is detrimental to those outside the decision. A positive externality occurs when the effect of a decision is beneficial to others outside the decision.

It can be both. Negative if the organization does not keep up with advancements in technology, a positive if it does. This is one reason why organizations must collect, analyze, and act on all internal and external environmental forces.
