Answer:
A) an increase in the price of other kinds of candy
Explanation:
If the price of substitute products (other types of candy) increases, then the suppliers of chewing gum can increase their price without the quantity demanded decreasing. If the decrease in the price of chewing gum is smaller than the increase in the price of substitute products, the quantity demanded will increase.
If there was a price increase of the main ingredients used to produce chewing gum, then the supply curve would shift to the left (option B is wrong).
If the workers signed an agreement that lowered their wages, then the supply curve would shift to the right (option C is wrong).
A decrease in the number of young people in the market would decrease the quantity demanded for chewing gum, which in turn would decrease the equilibrium price (option D is wrong).
A decrease in income would also decrease the quantity demanded, which would in turn decrease the equilibrium price (option E is wrong).

Answer:
moral hazard
Explanation:
Banks reduce the risk of moral hazard when they monitor and supervise how their clients are using the loans and credits made to them.
Some types of credits do not require any type of monitoring or control, e.g. a credit card which a client can use basically however he/she wants to. But other types of credit that are taken for purchasing assets, e.g. a mortgage, must be used by the bank's client to specifically carryout the intended activity.
In economics, moral hazard refers to the tendency that an economic party can engage in unusually risky activities because the capital (money) that they are investing is not theirs and the negative effects of a potential loss will be suffered most by other parties.
