Answer to Question 1

e

Answer to Question 2

A number of problems are associated with majority rule: It fails to recognize the strength of individual preferences;
it hinders the development of mutually beneficial trade -offs; it does not encourage group members to consider
creative alternatives to expand the size of the pie; it may be detrimental to the attainment of efficient outcomes
because it prevents logrolling; it may lead to more distributive and less integrative behaviors; it may not yield a
choice (even split); it does not eliminate conflicts of interest (instead, it provides a way for group members to live
with them); and decisions may not be stable (voting hides disagreement within groups, which threatens long-term
effectiveness). The unstable voting outcomes in Exhibit 9 -3 point to the impossibility theorem, which states that
when groups contain three or more members and are facing three or more options, no method can combine group
members' preferences in a way that guarantees group preference maximization.
