Answer:
Equilibrium quantity would increase. there would be an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price
Explanation:
If fewer people go on vacation fewer people would board planes. As a result, the demand curve for planes would shift inwards. This would lead to a decrease in equilibrium price and quantity. 
As a result of the higher cost of providing services, fewer planes would be in operation. This would lead to an inward shift of the supply curve. Equilibrium price would increase and equilibrium quantity would decrease.  
Taking this two effects together, equilibrium quantity would increase. there would be an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price.

Answer:
 C. Minimizes hiring, layoff, and unemployment costs
Explanation:
The employment-stability policy is a policy that aims to provide security and stability to employees of a company or industry. For workers, this is good because it creates greater security for planning the future of their lives. For businesses, it all depends. If workers keep output at a good level, firms will gain by reducing their spending on hiring research and layoffs. 
There is a discussion among economists about the effectiveness of this policy for the economy. Some find it beneficial and others find it can slow down the productivity of workers and the economy as a whole.
