Abstract

This paper analyses the socially optimal sharing of liability when both consumers and the environment incur harm from the activity of a monopolistic firm. We show that the optimal allocation depends on the domain-specific harm (consumers vs environment) as well as on the specific relationship between harm and output (proportional vs cumulative).
