Answer:
The answer is: letter c, a recycling program
Explanation:
A "free-rider" problem happens when <em>some members in the society don't contribute an equal share in the cost of a shared resource. </em>
Among the choices above, the recycling program will give rise to such situation. For example, when it comes to a recycling program of making a school's wall out of recycled bottles (in order to protect it from outsiders), not everyone will join the program yet, most of the time, the program is done for the good of the society. In this case, for the good of the school and the people visiting it.
This results to many free riders taking advantage of the school's wall, including the people who visits the school (parents, babysitters, friends, guardians etc.) and loiters in the area to pass time while waiting for their kids or friends

Using a financial calculator, I calculated the NPV using a 12% discount rate:
- Q's NPV = $200,636.15
- R's NPV = $259,221.01
Accurate measurement is VERY important in banking because banking is all about exact calculations. If one balance measure is off, the entire bank report will not be acurate. One little mess up and the entire calculation goes wrong.
