Solution

The correct answers are:

  1. If the expected rate of return on capital is 16%, an industry will find it profitable to expand its capital at 8% interest
  2. If the expected rate of return on capital is 6%, an industry will find it unprofitable to expand its capital at 8% interest

These two options exemplify how the interest rate rations the available supply of loanable funds to investment projects that have expected rates of return at or above the interest rate cost of borrowed funds.

In the first option, the expected rate of return on capital is higher than the interest rate, making it profitable for the industry to borrow funds and expand its capital.

In the second option, the expected rate of return on capital is lower than the interest rate, making it unprofitable for the industry to borrow funds and expand its capital.

The other two options do not fit the criteria because the expected rate of return on capital is lower than the interest rate.
