Answer:

Option C Incorrect; adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary  

Explanation:

Adjustment to price changes = (Amount received n years ago divided by Price Index n years ago) * Price Index today

Adjustment To price changes = ($28,000 / 110.8) * 180.5 = $45613.7

The amount $28,000 is worth $45,613.7 in todays value which means that if we adjust for price changes, Dave is incorrect because his salary is worth less by an amount $613.7 from his father's salary.

Answer: C. incorrect adjusting for price changes, his salary is less than his dad's salary

Explanation:

We need to calculate the inflation rate and then adjust  Dad's salary

Inflation = (180.5 - 110.8)/110.8 = 0.629061371 = 62.91%

Dad's Salary adjusted for inflation = $ 28000 x 1.6291 =45614.80

Dad,s salary of $28000 years ago is higher than Dave's starting salary of $45000 t years ago

In your own words.<br><br> Why is it important to the business to motivate employees?..
Alexeev081 [22]

This is mainly opinionated, and since I'm young I may be wrong.

I say it's good to motivate them because then they will do a better job at their task and will make you seem like a good boss/person, especially if it's a decent pay that will keep them being able to live. With the motivation, they might even remember more things (Such as: If you work at a gas station, you remember to upsell people when a deal is going on, whereas unmotivated people forget or just don't want to do it and be lazy). It's the same effect of giving a kid a piece of candy for being good, doing chores, or getting a harder question right.
