The correct answer among the choices provided is option C. The PAC contributes $6,000 to candidate Kroll and $2,000 to candidate Loon. It is because the contribution for one candidate is higher than the other. Campaign contributions are regulated by the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act.

Answer: C. The PAC contributes $6,000 to candidate Kroll and $2,000 to candidate Loon.

A political action committee (PAC) is an organization dedicated to collecting campaign contributions in order to support certain candidates or legislation. PACs have to be registered with the Federal Election Commission.

Current law states that a PAC can contribute to a candidate in the following way:

  • $5,000 to a candidate or candidate committee per election (primary and general elections count as separate elections).
  • $15,000 to a political party per year.
  • $5,000 to another PAC per year.
  • PACs may make unlimited expenditures independently of a candidate or political party.
