c)lead to higher rates of immigration
d)increase market productivity

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "B": shift the supply curve for labor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Leisure can be defined as the time employees spend out of their work frame in which they do not engage in any other economic labor-related activity. The more employees work, lesser time they will have for leisure and vice versa.

Thus, if people decide to spend more time working, the supply curve of labor will move to the right -more quantity supplied for labor. On the other hand, if people decide to increase their leisure time, the supply curve of labor will move to the left -fewer quantity supplied for labor.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A change in attitudes toward work is a factor that causes a shift in demand for labor.
