Knewton Expansion

Option C says some people will choose not to buy the bonds. The same point holds good in any circumstances. there will be some people who will any way not buy something or other. But even if we assume there is one buyer there is some extra fund to spare for the expansion of hospital.

Now consider the option (A). If we have one buyer and we generate some fund for hospital expansion we are giving a bigger share to other projects. So although there is a possibility of some additional funds being generated but we are giving a large amount to other projects. Also assume a case when there is no buyer, still just because of increase in interest rate as per the option (A) we give bigger fund to other projects than what those used to get.

Public hospitals are suffering because of a lack of money available for physical expansion projects. To help hospitals, local governments plan to offer municipal bonds with above-average interest rates to induce individuals to buy these bonds, because as local governments get more money from municipal bonds, more money becomes available to public hospitals for physical expansion projects.

Which of the following, if true, raises the most serious doubt regarding the effectiveness of local governments' plan to increase the amount of money available for hospital expansion projects?

• A)When local governments increase the interest on municipal bonds, the percentage of government funds allocated to non-expansion government projects increases correspondingly.
  B)The increased revenue local governments would receive as a result of offering municipal bonds with above-average interest rates would not offset the loss in revenue from personal income taxes during the first year of the plan.
  C)Even with interest rate incentives, some people will choose not to buy the municipal bonds.
  D)Individuals will generally not buy high-interest municipal bonds unless these bonds, when repaid, will help them cover home and healthcare payments. - not related
  E)The municipal bonds would give all buyers, regardless of how many bonds they purchase, the same interest rate per bond.- not related

Some people will not buy...but maybe few of them buy in lots......so C is not correct
