Your teams production goals recently increased. You are working hard to meet then but you are having trouble hitting these new t

Answer:

The Answer is C.

Explanation:

Why do I lean towards C? Let’s dissect it.

First and foremost, your goal is to foster a "greater sense of fairness among your employees".

This eliminates option A right off the bat. If workers are performing well and you seek justification to issue lower evaluations, it simply won't succeed, and employees will resist this, resulting in unnecessary conflicts.

Option Bseems quite absurd from my perspective! Asking employees to file grievances because the company lacks sufficient funds? When has that ever worked? Unless filing grievances magically makes the company able to pay more!

You could choose Option Dand avoid the entire situation, but that doesn’t solve anything, right? Therefore, we can disregard this as well.

Option C emerges as the most rational choice, since it involves conducting the evaluation honestly and subsequently providing a genuine explanation to your employees.

            (For recording cash decreases)

Response:

Year  Nominal wage  Real wage  Price level  Inflation rate

1                  $7                  $5                140             None

2                 $9                  $6                150               7.14 %

3                 $12                 $7.5             160              6.67 %

Explanation:

Note: A visual representation of the table is also provided.

The price level for Year 1 is calculated as (Nominal wage in year 1/Real wage in year 1) multiplied by 100.

Thus, Price level in Year 1 = ($7.00 / $5.00) * 100

Resulting in Price level in Year 1 = 1.4 times 100

Which gives Price level in Year 1 = 140

To find Real wage in Year 2: (Nominal wage in year 2 / Price level in year 2) multiplied by 100.

Which gives Real wage in Year 2 = ($9.00 / 150.00) * 100

Thus, Real wage in Year 2 = $6

To calculate Nominal wage in Year 3: (Real wage in Year 3 * Price level in Year 3) divided by 100.

<pthis results="" in="" nominal="" wage="" year="">

As a result, Nominal wage in Year 3 = $1,200 / 100

Leading to Nominal wage in Year 3 = $12

To determine Inflation rate in Year 2: (Price level in Year 2 - Price level in Year 1) divided by Price level in Year 1.

<phence inflation="" rate="" in="" year="">

Therefore, Inflation rate in Year 2 = 10 / 140

Giving Inflation rate in Year 2 = 0.0714, or 7.14 %

For Inflation rate in Year 3: (Price level in Year 3 - Price level in Year 2) divided by Price level in Year 2.
