  • C The way in which a firm decides on its profit maximising rate of output
  • D The problem of how output is distributed among individuals and groups in society.
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:

That is, if labour is cheap and capital is expensive, a labor-intensive technique would be considered and vice-versa. The prices of labour and capital are determined by the demand for and supply of labour and capital respectively.
