Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

In a centrally planned economy, decisions regarding the allocation of resources are made by government employees paid a salary, not by independent entrepreneurs whose own finances are at stake. Independent entrepreneurs make choices for the use of resources based on the expected profitability of various projects. This drive for profit provides an incentive for technological change that centrally planned economies are unable to duplicate. The result is that technological progress is more likely in market economies than in centrally planned economies.
