The American Federation of Labor (AFL) was a national federation of labor unions in the United States founded in Columbus, Ohio, in December 1886 by an alliance of craft unions disaffected from the Knights of Labor, a national labor association. Samuel Gompers of the Cigar Makers' International Union was elected president at its founding convention and reelected every year, except one, until his death in 1924. The AFL was the largest union grouping in the United States for the first half of the 20th century, even after the creation of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) by unions which were expelled by the AFL in 1935 over its opposition to industrial unionism. The Federation was founded and dominated by craft unions throughout its first fifty years, after which many craft union affiliates turned to organizing on an industrial union basis to meet the challenge from the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) in the 1940s.

Choose the statements that CORRECTLY describe the result a price change will have on the supply of or the demand for a product.
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The following statements are correct:

When productive resources decrease in price, producers will make more of a product.

Productive resources are also known as the factors of production. The factors of production are four: labor, land, capital, and entrepreneurship. When the factors of production are cheaper, firms can buy more factors, and thus, increase output.

Increases in the number of sellers of a product will cause a decrease in the equilibrium price of that product.

If supply increases, and demand stays constant, more goods will be offered to the same amount of customers. This will cause the equilibrium price of those goods to fall.
