Answer:

C. Fixed Interval

Explanation:

"Fixed Interval" is a type of <em>Reinforcement Schedule. </em>The "reward" in the situation above is the<em> salary given to the employees</em> during Wednesdays. As noticed, their productivity increases over the week, with the peak on Wednesday.  

The<u> "peak" of productivity</u> is the<u> exhibited behavior during pay day.</u> They try to work hard in order to receive a salary. <em>They become more inspired to work during the salary day.</em> It is followed by<em> </em><em>less productivity on Thursdays</em><em> </em>because they have already been rewarded.

Such reinforcement schedule is called the "fixed interval." This also means that their productivity will not increase if they will not be paid.

So, this explains the answer.

eduard

Answer:

$17.9469

Explanation:

Calculation for what dollar wage must be paid in the third year

Since the first year is tend to be the base year in which the real wage and nominal wage are both $15 per hour in that year.

The real wage is suppose to increase by 2 percent in the second year which means that the real wage in year two will be $15.30 ($15 * 1.02) per hour.

In a situation where the real wage was supposed to also increase by 2 percent in the third year, this means that the real wage in year three will be $15.606 ($15.3 * 1.02) per hour.

Therefore In order for us to find the nominal wage in third year , we have to index the real wage in order for it to adjust for inflation. Thus the nominal wage in third year will be $17.9469($15.606 * 1.15).

Therefore what dollar wage must be paid in the third year will be $17.9469
