Question

Assume a restaurant hires an additional chef who is as qualified as the current chefs. As a result, the level of output increases but by a smaller amount than when the previous additional chef was hired. Which of the following best explains this occurrence?

(A) the chefs are working with a fixed amount of space and equipment and they get in each other's way
(B) the additional wages cause profit to decrease
(C) the amount of food available for preparation is limited so output decreases
(D) the two chefs do not agree on food preparation and spend too much time arguing

Answer 1

The option C well describe the reason of lower increase in output because if we don't have any food tems available for preparation then the supply of the prepared food will eventually fall.

The other option A discuss efficiency losses which can be seen as reduction in output but the they decreases sales with lower amount.

Option B is totally wrong because output is not concerned with addition wages.

Option D shows 2 cheffs not agreeing on preparing food for customers and spend too much time arguing is close to scenario. But this issue cannot result in so much fewer sales growth as this might happen in occasions when the number of orders are less.

Answer 2

A

Step-by-step explanation:

the chefs are working with a fixed amount of space and equipment and they get in each other's way.
