Answer: E. . All of the above affect the wage a firm is willing to pay its workers

Explanation:

The wage a firm is willing to pay its workers is affected by:

• The productivity of workers.

• Consumer demand for the goods and/or services that the firm creates.

• The amount of fringe benefits the firm is required by law to pay.

• The level of payroll taxes the firm must pay.

It should be noted that when there's increase in productivity and rise in demand for a good by consumers, companies will be willing to pay more for their workers.

Likewise a decrease in tax and fringe benefits affects companies paying ability.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

B. who can immediately take over the family business

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because opportunity cost is not related to intelligence.

Option C is not correct because a high school graduate and a college attending student can access to student loans.

The family's wealth can not be a factor in terms of opportunity cost of attending college or a high school graduate. Therefore, option D is incorrect.

Option B is correct as a college attending student cannot take over the family business. So, it is his opportunity cost. On the other hand, a high school graduate can take over the business.

For the past two years, Swen Johannsen, owner/general manager of Swen's Fine Duds, a local men's clothing store, has fought to s

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Swen is using product/service repositioning strategy.

Explanation:

Product Repositioning simply refers to the art of altering the target markets perception of one's product and or services.

Swen is still in the clothing business. He has only changed the way he delivers it to the target consumers.

Of course, this sometimes calls for a change in product mix (which refers to altering the type of products being offered). However, the central idea of the strategy still holds as customers now see the business differently.

This type of strategy is easier to pull off for start-ups, or unpopular businesses trying to make a comeback. Where the business is a well-established brand, it can prove extremely difficult and may be costly.

Cheers.
