Answer: 1. Charities
2. Government action the only viable solution
Explanation:
Externalities are the resultant additional effects that are experienced by others as a result of actions by an economic agent who does not bear the extra aformentioned cost or benefit that their actions bring about.
1. Private Solutions to Externalities include any solution independent of the government.

The government has total control in a command economy, all production, investment, prices and incomes are determined by the government. A command economy is also known as a communist society because business owners do not have any control over their businesses. In a command economy, there are risks/disadvantages of running operations this way because there is a lack of competition and efficiency. When the government controls everything, there is less competition because pricing is set by the government. There is also less efficiency due to them waiting on the government to make their decisions.

It was stated in the scenario that ''the head of the investment banking department has asked the head of the brokerage unit <u>to change the recommendation from "sell" to "buy."</u>
This is a case of wanting to interfere with the <u>objectivity</u> of the recommendations which should be based on <u>facts not bias</u>.
Secondly, the head of investment banking is trying to interfere with the <u>independence</u> of the head of brokerage unit.
According to the Standards, the head of the brokerage unit would be permitted to place the company on a restricted list and <u>give only factual information</u> about the company.
