Which action would Country A most likely take that Country B would not? A. Artificially lower the price of corn B. Legislate higher production quotas C. Lower taxes on corn farming D.

Answer 1

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Country A has a mixed economy with free-market leanings. Country B has an absolute command economy. Both want to increase corn product exports. For this to happen, Country A should lower taxes on corn farming while country should not do this.

Answer 2

I believe the answer is: C. Lower taxes on corn farming

Free market economy prefers that the private sectors control most of the resources,

while the command economy prefers that the government control most of the resources.

So, country with free market economy tend to favour lower taxes because it give the most profit and control on the economy to the private sectors rather than government officials.
