Solution

The correct option is A Collective ownership
Collective ownership refers to the joint venture where jointly the private parties as well as the government run a business for personal gains as well as social welfare. A capitalist economy is the one where the ownership of economy's resources is in the hands of the private sector. Thus, collective ownership is not possible in a capitalist economy.
