Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

An outcome is said to be a Pareto efficient outcome if it is not possible to make someone better off without making someone else worse off. Pareto efficiency does not ensure equity. For example, 100 is divided between two individuals such that one individual receives 75 and the other individual receives 25. This allocation is Pareto efficient as it is not possible to make an individual better off without making the other worse off, but the allocation does not represent equity.
