Answer:

moral hazard

Explanation:

Banks reduce the risk of moral hazard when they monitor and supervise how their clients are using the loans and credits made to them.

Some types of credits do not require any type of monitoring or control, e.g. a credit card which a client can use basically however he/she wants to. But other types of credit that are taken for purchasing assets, e.g. a mortgage, must be used by the bank's client to specifically carryout the intended activity.

In economics, moral hazard refers to the tendency that an economic party can engage in unusually risky activities because the capital (money) that they are investing is not theirs and the negative effects of a potential loss will be suffered most by other parties.

Is an atom with a nucleus of 31 protons and 31 neutrons a stable isotope?
Liula [17]
<span>No. Since the atom has 31 protons, that means it's an isotope of gallium. Looking up gallium, you can determine that in nature it's composed of the two stable isotopes, gallium-69 and gallium-71, which have 38 and 40 neutrons respectively. Looking further, you will find that gallium-62 has a half life of 116.18 milliseconds which means it's quite unstable.</span>

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

I, II and III.

Explanation:

Price ceiling refers to the price control policy that is used by the government to protect the customers who are not able afford goods at the prevailing price.

If government of a nation sets a price ceiling below the equilibrium price level then this will increase the quantity demanded for the product because now goods become more affordable to the consumers and decreases the quantity supplied because it will become less profitable for the producers.

Hence, the demand for goods exceeds the supply of goods, this will create a shortage of goods in an economy.
