Q.4. (45 Points) Suppose that under the Michigan’s voluntary emission trading program, the objective for the two major firms in an urban area is a 50 percent reduction in carbon monoxide (CO) emissions from 120 units to 60 units. Each firm face the following costs: Firm 1: TAC1=2000+0.6(A1) 2 MAC1=1.2A1 Firm 2: TAC2=1000+0.2(A2) 2 MAC2=0.4A2, where A1 and A2 represent the percentages of CO emission abatement achieved by Firm 1 and Firm 2, respectively, and TAC and MAC are measured...
