Answer: B) economic responsibilities toward its shareholders

Explanation:

The primary purpose of a company is to maximize shareholder wealth. This means that it is to pursue strategy that would ensure the maximum return to its shareholders. This is also known as its economic responsibility towards shareholders.

Producing xylene-free paints reduces the dividends that are going to shareholders so it would seem that shareholder wealth is not being maximized and they are not getting the maximum return they could get so the company is violating its economic responsibilities towards shareholders. It is for a good cause though.

Bogdan [553]

In case the consumers have a pessimistic tendency towards the future, they would expect the economy to face a downturn. They will, as a result, save their income and wealth for the future.  

This would cause a decline in consumer spending and the aggregate demand curve will move down to the left.  

An increase in consumer confidence, on the other hand, would cause consumer spending and aggregate demand to increase.
