Question

In a growing number of cities, stores are required either not to make available plastic or paper bags or to do so only for an additional fee. if this fee can be refunded when someone recycles the bag, the refund acts as a(n) ________ incentive.

Answer 1

The answer to the question is (A) a direct incentive.

A direct incentive refers to a type of incentive that is given in order to cause an action to occur.

A direct incentive is generally tangible to the person who is targeted by it. In contrast, its opposite, an indirect incentive refers to a type of incentive that a person receives indirectly by choosing to do something. It is usually less tangible than a direct incentive.
