Answer:

C) 6 pounds of pork and 8 pounds of tomatoes

Explanation:

Explanation:

            Labor hours to make 1 lb. of:          lbs. produced in 24 hours

                 Pork                  Tomatoes              Pork            Tomatoes

Farmer         6                            3                       4                       8

Rancher       4                            4                       6                       6

If both decide to specialize in producing only one good, the farmer will produce 8 pounds of tomatoes per day and the rancher will produce 6 pounds of pork per day.

This way when the rancher trades 4 pounds of pork in exchange for 6 pounds of tomatoes, he is gaining 2 pounds of pork which is equivalent to 8 labor hours.

When the rancher trades 6 pounds of tomatoes in exchange for 4 pounds of pork, he is gaining 2 pounds of tomatoes which is equivalent to 6 labor hours.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

B, Indirect incentive

Explanation:

An incentive is anything that motivates an individual to behave in a certain way. An incentive could range from money to many other things and it is the reason why an individual acts in a certain way.

For example, salary and bonuses are incentives for workers. This makes the worker work better and harder and more efficiently because he/she knows that there is something to encourage him for doing his/her work diligently.

Incentive can be direct or indirect as in the case of the above question.

In the case of the above question, a generous disability insurance can motivate workers to falsely claim to be disabled. This means that the financial implication of the insurance package for disability is most likely the only reason for workers to claim false disability.

Cheers.
