Answer:

c. Higher-skilled workers are readily available at the higher wage.

Explanation:

the government decree would make the cost of hiring low skilled labour higher. As, a result there would be a reduction in the quantity demanded of low skilled labour.

if High skilled workers are readily available at the higher wage this would lead to a greater  decrease in employment of low-skilled workers. Employers would ask themselves why pay the same high wages high skilled labour earns to low skilled labour when high skilled labour can be hired at the same price since most likely higher skilled workers would carry out the tasks better than lower skilled labour ?

Neko [114]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Ms. Pear invested $12,000 in 1,000 shares of YZ Corporation. After the dividends she received and the stock split, she ended with 2,400 shares. Since she sold 400 shares, it represents 16.67% of her total shares (= 400 / 2,400). To determine the basis for the 400 shares she sold all we need to do is multiply 16.67% x $12,000 (initial investment) = $2,000

Flesch corporation produces and sells two products. in the most recent month, product c90b had sales of $26,100 and variable exp
julia-pushkina [17]

Flesch Corporation produces and sells two products, in case if there is any shift in the sales from product Y45E to C90B, then the breakeven will also decrease, since the contribution margin for Product C90B is less than the Product Y45E.

Contribution Margin: Total Contribution ÷ Total Sales

Product C90B:

=(26100-9135) ÷ 26100

= 35%

Product Y45E:

= (33540-15093) ÷ 33540

= 45%

Since the contribution margin of Product C90B < Product Y45E, the breakeven will decrease.
