Anil and Bala have the choice of using either Integrated Pest Control (IPC) or Terminator (T) to solve the problem of pest insects. The table below shows their payoffs depending on their choice. The following diagram shows these possible outcomes on a graph. Based on the information above, which of the following is correct?

a.(I, I) is the unique Pareto efficient outcome.

b.Anil and Bala can Pareto improve by moving from (T, T) to (T, I).

c.(T, T) is the only Pareto inefficient outcome.

d.Anil and Bala will both be happy to move from the Pareto efficient (I, T) to the "fairer" Pareto efficient outcome (I, I).
