Gavin Meza · Answer 1

c. temporal discounting.

Explanation:

When discounting the 1,200 from factors like risk and other possibilities the consumers consider to not trade with the bee factory. This is a serious reputation harm that may be solved over time.

Now, finnancially speaking, when people discount the check the person will do math in their heed to compare with the 1,000 dollars today and 1,200 in the future.
