The fourth alternative is correct (D).
The national debt is an instrument that the Government uses to influence the economy and to launch or withdraw money from circulation through the sale or purchase of government bonds, that is, it is an instrument of economic policy.
<u>Government expenditures with real sectors are considered as primary expenditures, ie, non-financial expense.</u> So the budget balance is not actually affected because of the debt because it is separate.
However, the percentage of spending that is used between the two primary and financial sectors may vary, ie the more financial expense, the lower the percentage in disposition for the actual expenditure.
One exception is when the economy grows a lot. In this case, growth of financial expenses and real expenses can happen at the same time.

Answer:
Negative punishment
Explanation:
Reinforcement refers to do something that will make the behavior to take place <u>more frequently</u>. It can be positive or negative:
- Positive reinforcement: consists in GIVING something we like that will reinforce the conduct
- Negative reinforcement: consists in TAKING away something we don't like so that the conduct will be reinforced.
On the other way, punishments refers to do something that will make the behavior occur <u>less frequently</u>. I can also be positive or negative:
- Negative punishment: consists in TAKING AWAY something we like, so the conduct is punished.
- Positive punishment: consists in GIVING something we don't like, so the conduct is punished.
In the example, the behavior was a noncompliance behavior, therefore <u>we don't want this to keep occuring</u> so we're talking about PUNISHMENT.
Since the consequence was the <u>REMOVAL </u>of a token <u>(something we like)</u> we can conclude that this is an example of negative punishment.
