Answer:

d. ​ the maximization of output from available resources.

Explanation:

Efficiency is a situation where every resource is used in an optimal way to give the best possible result and eliminate waste. Efficient production is one with the lowest costs.  Economic efficiency is, therefore, the maximization of scarce resources to achieve the most economic benefit or output to consumers.

Efficiency is a relationship between inputs and output. It involves around how to use less inputs to get more value in the output. Economic efficiency focuses on the value obtained rather than quantities. It will include efficient production, efficient distribution, and efficient consumption of goods and services.

If in the past Congress had taken additional actions to make saving more rewarding, then today it is likely that the equilibrium
posledela

Answer:

C

Explanation:

In this question, we are looking at what would be the later effect of the Congress taking steps to make sure that there is an increase in the amount of returns on savings for example, say the amount of interest rate on saved money is increased.

What will happen in this case is that the equilibrium interest rate would be lower while the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds will be higher. What he meant by the equilibrium interest rate is that it is the interest rate at which the amount of money demanded is equal to the amount of money supplied.

Due to the legislation by congress, it is expected that more money would be supplied in terms of bank deposits as people would want to make a higher profit off the legislation. The effect of this is that the equilibrium interest rate will be lower as its balance would have been upset my the availability of more deposits and less demand.

We also say that the equilibrium level of loanable funds will be higher. This is because there would be more money present in the vaults of the bank as savings have been encouraged and people are expected to fill the bank with more money. This thus means the bank has more money to throw around via loans as there is an increase in the amount of savings. This surely would drive up the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds
