When comparing Mexico to Scotland, you would expect Scottish workers to have greater productivity and higher labour cost per worker

Step-by-step explanation:

One may expect that a Scotland plant will be less labour intensive and efficient per worker than just Mexican facilities as a more advanced technological nation and that "higher productivity and low labour cost" will be the right answer.

Both possibilities for lower productivity can be excluded as they demonstrate lower productivity. "Higher productivity, but less energy per job" is not the solution because it recognises lower labour costs per worker rather than higher.

The increase in labour productivity relies, according to certain studies, on three key factors: innovation and capital goods saving, modern technology and human capital.
