◦ Firm B will sell permits to Firm A, pollute more, and reduce its costs by the area 1; Firm A will buy permits from Firm B, pollute less, and increase its earnings by area 4.
◦ Firm B will sell permits to Firm A, pollute less, and reduce its costs by the area 1; Firm A will buy permits from Firm B, pollute more, and increase its costs by the area 4.
