Answer:

1. Sale of western lands

2. Custom duties

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale of western lands were offered for European countries who are interested in opening up their business in united states (such as cattle company, mining company, fishery, etc) . At that time, this offers were really beneficial for foreign investors since they can obtain united states' resources at a typically lower puce.

The custom duties are carried out by increasing the number of tariffs that imposed toward imported goods. This carried out to ensure that the country obtain monetary benefit from the goods made in competing countries.
