Bruno makes tamales to sell at the local farmer's market, and each month he sells all he makes. Each month, tamales had been selling for 10 per dozen and Bruno made 80 dozen tamales at a total cost of 500.
 
  It costs Bruno 100 to rent a booth at the farmer's market. This month, as Bruno is getting ready to pay management the 100 booth rental fee and display his tamales, he discovers that he will need to cut his price to 5 per dozen to compete with other tamale sellers. Bruno should A) not pay the booth rental fee and not set up his booth because he has already spent 500 to make his tamales and will only receive 400 by selling them.
  B) only set up his booth if he does not have to pay the booth rental fee because then he will at least break even.
  C) go ahead and pay the fee and set up his booth because the marginal benefit of selling his tamales is 400 and the marginal cost is 100.
  D) not set up his booth this month because the marginal benefit of selling his tamales is 400 and the marginal cost is 600.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
