When markets or governments make economic decisions about what goods and services their resources will be used to make, what basic economic question are they answering? a. how to produce? b. for whom to produce? c. how much capital should be raised? d. what to produce?

D is the correct answer.

Markets are always asking the question of what the consumer wants, so what they are really asking is "what should we make with the valuable limited resources that we have."

This is because a producer wants to charge the best price for the lowest cost and that can only be done if there is demand for the product.
