Answer:
D. When ITQs are used, no one has an incentive to cheat and exceed the quota.
Explanation:
As ITQs (individual transferable quotas) were initially created by the government to regulate an above all, social affair, which is related to the share in the total allowable catch of fish (species).
Since some of the fishermen have lower and some have higher marginal costs of "producing" fish, they trade ITQ's between themselves, with those who have high marginal costs selling ITQs to those that have low marginal costs. Also, the marginal private cost now becomes determined by the initial marginal private cost of the fish, plus the <u>price of the ITQ</u>. Then, it becomes known as the marginal social cost.
The equilibrium for the ITQ price is the difference between the <em>marginal social benefit</em> and the marginal cost. With the base marginal private cost becoming the marginal social cost, no one has the incentive to exceed the quota, as that would make the marginal cost go higher than the price, and the marginal profit lower. This notion creates the equality between self-interest and social interest.

Answer: A clear statement of the problem
Explanation:
The opening of a direct claim message should clearly state the problem that you would like to be addressed by the receiver and would set the tone for the rest of the message.
Claim messages are formal messages and as such, should be clear and concise so that the message is communicated effectively and there is a lesser chance of the message being misread. This is why the message should be clearly stated, so that the receiver understands it and responds in kind.

Explanation:
Bob and Sally can claim an American Opportunity (AO) credit for both of their children, Del and Owen.
Del's AO credit is $2,500 (100% of the initial $2,000 qualifying expenses and 25% of the next $2,000 qualifying expenses).
Owen's AO credit is the same as Del's, $2,500.
The total American Opportunity credit claimed is $5,000 ($2,500 + $2,500)
