A
When to produce?
B
What to produce?
C
How to produce?
D
For whom to produce?
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An economic system is any system of allocating scarce resources. Economic systems answer three basic questions: what will be produced, how will it be produced, and how will the output society produces be distributed?

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct option is d. What happens when you add to or subtract from a current situation?. The central or fundamental questions of economics are: what to produce, how to produce, and for whom to produce. So, the effect of any addition or subtraction on the on-going situation is not a fundamental question.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three main types of economic systems: command, market, and mixed. We will briefly describe each of these three types.

Detailed explanation-4: -Therefore, the the problem of ‘When to produce?’ is not regarded as a central problem of the economy.
