Answer to Question 1

False. Efficiency means how many goods to produce, and equity means how the goods are allocated. They do not move in opposite directions. Even if one might say that the United States is the most efficient country in the developed world, it does not mean that the U.S. is also the most inequitable country.

Answer to Question 2

D
