Answer:

a. A single grocery store is the only source of food in a small town, giving the store the ability to influence the price of food. - the source of market failure here is the fact that the grocery store is a monopoly. Because it is a monopoly, it has the market power to charge prices higher than in a free market, and to supply quantities lower than in a free market.

b. A manufacturing plant dumps chemical waste into a nearby river, poisoning the water supply for a small town downstream.  - the source of the market failure here is pollution, a negative externality, because the dumping of chemical waste from the plant is affecting the people of the small town downstream.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

C) holier-than-thou

Explanation:

A holier than thou appeal refers to an attitude of superiority. It was originally used as a religious expression to show that someone was more "holy" or more religious than other people.

But this approach of feeling superior also takes place in a business when a member of the organization feels that his/her job is better and more important than the jobs and performance of the rest. It implies being super optimistic about your own abilities and capabilities, enough for them to diminish others.

E.g. how many times have you heard someone else say that if it was him/her that was doing something important, everything would be great and flow smoothly, because they are the best in doing this and that, and about everything else.
