Answer:

Free Rider or collective action

Explanation:

Free rider or collective action refers to the problem in which individual think that when a joint action will be done, that is some collective act will take place no matter what, they they free ride.

Which means they withdraw to perform as they believe that their individual act will not change anything and the result shall be collective.

Every individual thinks their contribution does not matter.

Accordingly potential members who can actually make a difference by their individual corporation tend to move out and not perform and then cumulatively the results are affected.

choli [55]
First of all, let us calculate the annual gains: they are 80000-60000=20000$. In three years, the profit will be 3*20000=60000$. Hence, the break-even investment would be 60000$. For a year after that, the profit will be 20000$; hence the return on investment would be 20000/60000=33,33% per year. After 6 years, the investment would have yielded a 100% profit (return on investment).
