Answer:
C. The government pays farmers $100 per ton of wheat produced.
Explanation:
Subsidy is grant/ financial aid given by government to producers of a commodity, to enable its availability in markets at a lower price.
Government paying farmers $100 tone per wheat produced is a subsidy as : It is a financial assistance given by government to reduce wheat's price in markets.
Bank's low interest rate to farmers is just credit ease policy ; Govt putting a tax on wheat imports is opposite of subsidy ; Farmer paying govt $100 per unit wheat is also a form of tax (opposite to subsidy).
Free enterprise pretty much says that people can sell whatever they want at a price they choose to whoever wants to but it. Becacuse of this people wanted to go out and make their own businesses where they sold the goods or services they chose to. So yes, I believe free market inspired people to become euntrapenures. For the next question, yes as well. With the amount of people selling different things the economy became more diverse.

Explanation:
A portfolio which is equally as risky as market should have a beta equal to the beta of the market as beta is a measure of the riskiness. The beta of market is always equal to 1. The formula for beta of a portfolio is as follows:
Portfolio beta = wA * Beta A + wB * Beta B + ... + wN * Beta N
Where w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolio.
Let investment in stock C be x
1 = 146000/500000 * 0.91 + 134000/500000 * 1.36 + x/500000 * 1.51
1 = 0.26572 + 0.36448 + 1.51x / 500000
1 - 0.6302 = 1.51x / 500000
0.3698 * 500000 = 1.51x
1844900 / 1.51 = x
x = $122450.3311 rounded off to $122450.33
