Answer 1

The other answer's wrong, it's A. There are different and incompatible economic goals.

Answer 2

The fourth alternative is correct (B).

Economic science assumes that goods and resources are scarce. In this way, it is necessary to seek the best form of allocation of these resources so that the whole society is contemplated.

To reach the level of effective allocation, there is a need for planning and information on resources. In this way, it is possible to draw feasible logistics, distribution, etc. goals that optimize the allocation of resources.
