Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

An increase in the cost of fishing will lead to a decrease in the supply of fishes. This happens because the suppliers will be able to supply less at the same cost.  

So the supply curve will move to the left. This leftward shift in the supply curve will cause the equilibrium price to increase and the equilibrium quantity to decrease.  

All the other options would have caused the equilibrium quantity to increase either through increased demand or increased supply.

Alona [7]
Bias may be occurring.  Bias is basically thinking someone is better than another person due to one factor, without even knowing the person.  In this instance, the store manager is only hiring shift supervisors who have a degree, rather than an experienced cashier without a degree.  The bias here is dependent on the employee's educational history.  The manager may think that even though the cashiers are great, they still may not have the qualifications that one would pick up in college.
