Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

The social interest looks at what is best for society as a whole; choices that are best for society as a whole are said to be in the social interest. The self-interest looks at what is best for the individual; choices that are best for the individual making the choice are said to be in the self-interest. An example of a choice made in the self-interest is a student's decision to take an economics class. An example of a choice made in the social interest is a firm's decision to reduce its air pollution.
