Answer to Question 1

Incompleteness of contracts give both the employer and the employee potential incentives
to act opportunistically, because each knows it will cost the other to form a new relationship that replaces their current one. In reality, however, employment often lasts for decades. Although unwritten, an employment contract can be enforced by the employer's reputation.

Answer to Question 2

B
