Classifying Economic Roles in the Credit Market
In a framework used to analyze credit and labour markets, participants are categorized based on their roles and outcomes. 'Principals' are those who offer contracts, such as lenders. 'Agents' are those who successfully enter into a contract, such as individuals who receive a loan. 'Would-be agents' are those who seek a contract but are excluded, such as rejected loan applicants.
Analyze the scenario below and classify each of the three participants (The Community Bank, Aisha, and Ben) into one of these categories, providing a brief justification for each classification.

A factory manager is evaluating four different production techniques to manufacture 1,000 identical units of a product. Each technique requires a different combination of labor hours and machine hours.
- Technique 1: 40 labor hours, 80 machine hours
- Technique 2: 50 labor hours, 60 machine hours
- Technique 3: 40 labor hours, 95 machine hours
- Technique 4: 60 labor hours, 60 machine hours
Without knowing the specific costs of labor or machine time, which technique can be definitively ruled out as inefficient compared to another single technique on the list?

A firm currently uses 'Technology Alpha' to produce one unit of a good, which requires 4 hours of labor and 8 units of raw material. The firm is evaluating three new technologies. Match each new technology with the statement that best describes its relationship to 'Technology Alpha'.
A firm is evaluating two methods for producing an identical batch of goods. Method A requires 3 workers and 7 units of raw material. Method B requires 4 workers and 6 units of raw material. A rational, profit-maximizing firm would find that one of these methods is definitively superior, regardless of the specific wages paid to workers or the price of the raw material.
