Smog Corporation and Grimy Corporation emit pollution in their production processes. The local government has established a standard for the pollution levels of Smog Corporation and Grimy Corporation of 25,000 units of pollution. To ensure this level of pollution, the government has allocated 15,000 pollution permits to Smog Corporation and 10,000 pollution permits to Grimy Corporation.

The current allocation of permits is not efficient. We may rearrange each firms demand function for pollution permits to determine their marginal benefit of emitting pollution. This implies Smog Corporations marginal benefit of polluting is: The current allocation of permits is not efficient.

This implies Smog Corporations marginal benefit of polluting is:   Grimy Corporation's marginal benefit of polluting is:   At the current pollution allocation, Smog Corporation's marginal benefit is:   However, Grimy corporation's marginal benefit is:   Since the marginal benefit of polluting is much higher to Grimy Corporation, the current allocation of pollution permits is not optimal. Grimy Corporation is willing to pay $7,500 for a permit at the government's allocation while the marginal value of a permit to Smog Corporation is zero. Thus, there is a trade opportunity.
