High quality goods and services are made available to consumers because of producers
a. hold self-interests
b. would like to compete
c. look for subsidies
d. specialize in production

The correct answer is A.

Goods and services are available to consumers, who can purchase them to satisfy their needs, because such production meanwhile constitutes the means through which a producer pursues his self-interests. Selling the merchandise generates profits for the producer who, otherwise, would not continue with his transformation and commercial activities.

This was the base of the economy according to Adam Smith.
