Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

In the wake of a financial crisis, many businesses find it difficult to cover operating expenses and would welcome direct financial support. However, business subsidies or tax credits and measures to stimulate demand address only the symptoms of the economic downturn. Direct aid to businesses may allow them to survive, but does not bring the economy beyond the crisis. The underlying problem is the inability of financial institutions to identify productive opportunities worthy of financial support. The value of financial assets and, especially, the viability of surviving financial institutions must be clarified to bring the crisis to an end.
