Suppose that the government is going to auction off permits equal to one third of total emissions in the economy (so two-thirds of all emissions must be abated), and that there will be a competitive market for permits sold on an exchange (i. e., in a market) with publicly posted prices so that it is very easy to buy or sell permits. Suppose now that a firm with a marginal abatement cost of $8 has a special opportunity to buy 100 permits at a price of $15 per permit.

True or False: The firm should buy the permits even though their marginal cost is below $15.
