Question
Chapter 2R, Problem 6MCQ
To determine
The question requires us to identify the most likely result of the higher wage.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
An increase in workers’ wages causes the input cost to rise and thus discourages the producers. Higher costs of production lead to a lower supply of goods and services.
