1,005.9375 - 2.0604 = <em>1,003.8771</em>

Specialization and the division of ______ can increase productivity. Please choose the correct answer from the following choices
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Specialization and the division of labor can increase productivity.

Explanation:

Specialization is about an <em>invidivual</em> focusing on very specific tasks that are best suited to them according to their skills and knowledge. This concept can be applied to <em>companies</em> and <em>countries</em>, as they specialize on producing a small amount of products they excel at, for having the raw material, knowledge and/or technology to do so.

The division of labor is about breaking down the production process of a good in <em>different parts</em> performed by <em>different people</em> instead of having all workers performing all the tasks. The idea is to let workers be <em>specialists</em> in a small amout of tasks so that they can be more efficient and overall productivity can be greatly increased. This concept was introduced by the <u>'father of economics'</u> Adam Smith in his book "The Wealth of Nations" released in 1776.

Specialization and division of labor are complementing concepts that bring a company an increase in productivity and helps achieve economies of scale.
