Answer: Liability of foreignness
Explanation: In simple words, the extra cost incurred by a company operating in a foreign country as compared to the local companies over there is called the liability of foreignness.

Answer:
A. - The net public debt decreases
The net public debt decreases because the government has obtained more funds in tax revenue. For this reason, the government will likely run a budget surplus.
B. - The net public debt increases
The government was already running a budget deficit (albeit a small one). With the effects of the hurricane, the government will have to spend more to help the people affected, and will likely have to borrow even more, increasing its deficit.
C. - The net public debt remains unchanged
There was a transfer of funds from one government agency to the other, and the net effect of such transfer is likely to be very small to make any significant change in the net public debt. The net public debt remains unchanged.
