Answer: a tax equal to the external cost.

Explanation:

The most efficient taxes are those that will be equal to the external cost of production that a company is imposing on the environment. This means in effect that a company is paying for the pollution it is inflicting on the environment.

Companies polluting less would pay less and those polluting more would pay more. This is the logic of a tax equal to the external cost.

The Balance here is,

= $3 * 66 resold shares

= $198

This $198 will therefore be credited to the Additional Paid-in Capital account.
