Onsider three firms identical in all aspects (including the probability with which they discover a shirker), except that monitoring costs vary across the firms. Moni-toring workers is very expensive at Firm A, less expensive at Firm B, and cheapest at Firm C. If all three firms pay efficiency wages to keep their workers from shirk-ing, which firm will pay the greatest efficiency wage? Which firm will pay the smallest efficiency wage?

Firm A will pay the greatest and firm C will pay the smallest.

Explanation:

Shirking can be defined as the act of neglecting or not doing a job properly so it is an unwanted behavior at every firm.

Even though the probability of discovering a shirker is the same at each firm, firm A pays the highest amount to their monitoring workers who keep track of the employees and their efficiency.

This wage difference can act as a performance booster for monitoring workers and can lead to the ones at firm A to be more strict causing the workers to be more productive. Therefore firm A will need to pay the greatest efficiency wage to keep their employees motivated. And firm C will pay the smallest efficiency wage.

I hope this answer helps.

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
