Explanation:
The measurement of productivity in service and manufacturing is different in the sense of the ability to measure productivity, as a service has different characteristics that are Intangibility, Inseparability, Variability and Perishability, it is more difficult to measure its productivity, for example, a service is variable, so even if there are standards for the provision of that service, there are issues that will vary and this can change productivity.
There is also the fact that if the productivity measured by the capacity in the service sector is influenced by the loss of quality of the same, as customers may feel hurt if there is a rush in a service provided, for example, so that the service is more productive .
Answer:
b. The slope of the budget constraint is the same for each woman.
Explanation:
Budget Line is the combination of two goods that a consumer can buy, given prices & money income (all spent).
Equation : p1x1 + p2x2 = m ;
where p1 & p2 are price of good 1 & 2 , x1 & x2 are quantities of good 1 & good 2 , m = money income
- Abby's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 80
- Bobbi's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 60
- Deborah's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 40 [ I = Icecream, N = Novel ]
Slope of Budget Line represents change (sacrifise) of a good needed to get change (gain) of other good, given same prices & income.
Slope = ΔY/ΔX = Px / Py
Since prices are same for each woman, price ratios & hence the slope of budget line will also be same for all of them.
