Solution

The table represents a market in which there is a negative externality. This is because the external cost, which is the cost borne by individuals who are not participating in the transaction, is positive. This means that there are additional costs associated with the production or consumption of the good that are not being accounted for in the private cost. This is a characteristic of a negative externality.
