In an effort to​ "support" the price of some agricultural​ goods, the Department of Agriculture pays farmers a subsidy in cash for every acre that they leave unplanted. The Agriculture Department argues that the subsidy increases the​ "cost" of planting and that it will reduce supply and increase the price of competitively produced agricultural goods. Critics argue that because the subsidy is a payment to​farmers, it will reduce costs and lead to lower prices. Which argument is​ correct? A. The Department of​ Agriculture's argument is correct. The subsidy increases the​ "cost" of​planting, which in turn makes each acre more profitable for​ farmers, so they can plant fewer acres. B. The​ critics' argument is correct. The more money farmers​ receive, the easier it will be for them to reduce prices. In this​ case, the subsidy acts like increased revenue or serves to lower​ farmers' costs. C. The Department of​ Agriculture's argument is correct. The subsidy does increase the​ "cost" of​planting, but there is now an opportunity cost. By​ planting, the farmers must give up the subsidy. The subsidy will clearly lead to fewer acres of production and higher farm prices. D. The​ critics' argument is incorrect. The more money farmers​ receive, the greedier they will​become, so prices will rise. In this​ case, the subsidy acts like increased revenue or serves to lower​ farmers' costs.
