    The problem of adverse selection:A. occurs when sellers (who know more about the quality of what they are selling than buyers) deliberately select inferior products to sell.

    Given:

    principal = 12,000

    interest rate = 6%

    Year 1 = 12,000 * 1.06 = 12,720

    Year 2 = 12,720 * 1.06 = 13,483.20 Choice D.

    Adverse selection can be seen in option A - that; s because the sellers have the information about the quality of all products

    about Jared: At the end of the first year he would have:

    12 000 + 6%*12000=12000+720=12720

    After the second year, he would have 12720+12720+12720*6%=13483.2 - Answer D!
