Pay a team rate of €0.10 per piece of fruit picked, divided equally (€0.05 each) regardless of who harvested it.

Según los criterios oficiales de corrección
Total fruit harvested under Scheme 1 will most likely be greater than under Scheme 2. True or False?
Solución: True
Justify your response.
Solución: Under Scheme 2, free-riding occurs because each worker pays the full cost of effort but only receives half of the marginal gain (€0.05 vs. €0.10 in Scheme 1).
