    The correct answer is option a.

    Explanation:

    When a factory closes, its workers become unemployed. Their income declines or disappears. A decrease in income further causes decrease in demand and consumption.

    The factory workers will no longer be able to afford restaurant meals, or their demand for meals will decline.

    A decline in the demand for meals will adversely affect the revenue and profits of local restaurants.

    So, closing up of a factory is a bad news for local restaurants.
