First of all it is necessary to define the concept of negative externality. A negative externality is a cost that is suffered by a third party as a result of an economic transaction. In other words it occurs when an economic transaction causes a harmful effect to a third party. So, an example of a negative externality is the sleep you lose when your neighbor throws a loud party next door that keeps you awake.
