Answer:
B) In its rulings, the NLRB has allowed employee empowerment in certain very limited situations.
Explanation:
Employee empowerment refers to a company giving its employees a higher degree of autonomy and independence regarding their normal work related activities.
Personally I don't understand how employee empowerment can affect employees negatively but unions tend to oppose it unless they are directly involved in the empowerment process.
Assuming the costs are normally distributed, then Z = (X-mu)/sigma
For piano Z= (3000-4000)/2500 = -0.4
For guitar Z= (550-500)/200 = 0.25
For drums set Z= (600-700)/100 = -1
Drums set < Piano < Guitar
Drums cost is lowest when compared to the instruments of same type
.
Guitar cost is highest when compared to the instruments of same type.

Answer:
3400, Rise, C
Explanation:
1. Since there are just 3 firms and two already has a sum total of 70% (40+30), the third firm will have a market share of 30%
HHI= 
HHI= 1600+900+900
HHI= 3400
2. Abe's Bikes with 30% leaves the market, if the two firms were to share Abe's market share equally (15+15), it will leave Firm A with 55% (40+15) and Firm B with (30+15) 45%
Therefore,
HHI= 
HHI=3025+2025
HHI= 5050
A rise in HHI
3. C
An index of 10,000 corresponds to a monopoly firm with 100% market share.
Answer:
neither
producer surplus
consumer surplus
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.
Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good
Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product
Producer surplus = price – least price the seller is willing to accept
The first scenario is neither a producer or consumer surplus because a transaction did not take place
The second scenario is a producer surplus.
the producer surplus = 60 - 55 = 5
The third scenario is a consumer surplus
consumer surplus = $114 - $107 = $7
