Answer 1

Inheritance

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question highlights example of inheritance. Whenever the ownership of business is transferred from one generation to another, it can be taken as an example of inheritance in a capitalist system.

The same has happened in the above question as well. Chet Bowes who owned his own lanscapped business has now transferred the ownership to his son Josh who has recently taken charge, now it is very much clear from the question neither Josh built the company on his own now was hired on the basis of his capabilities, the transfer happened on the basis of his relationship with the owner of the company. The question shows an example of inheritance.
