Answer:

b) Lateral Thinking

Explanation:

Lateral thinking is the approach where creative and innovative ways are thought out. In this approach, problem solvers deliberately distance themselves from generic and classic approaches and thus try to come up with brand new ideas and not follow typical thinking patterns.

All the other options can be used to find solutions but they may not necessarily take this innovative approach.  

Hope that helps.

If Congress ends an investment tax credit that used to subsidize domestic investment, how would this affect the market for loana
marin [14]

Answer: Demand will fall, Interest rates will fall

Explanation:

The investment tax credit would have encouraged more companies to seek loanable funds in order to embark on investment opportunities because they would be taxed less. This increase in demand in the market for loanable funds would have led to rates rising to keep up with demand.

If Congress were to end this credit, the incentive to invest and avoid tax would be gone. Companies would therefore demand less loanable funds and with this drop in demand there will be a drop in interest rates as well to entice people to borrow at the lower rates.
