What answer did people put for the flexible working question? I put that it would reduce labour turnover

What did people put for labour costs
I thought the business paper went well, although I won't say anything too good until results day :wink:
Anyway, for those of you doing Unit 2B: Business Economics, I got the following for the multiple choice (in no particular order)
1) Mining
2) Non-price competition
3) Low Labour Turnover
4) Working Longer Hours
5) Fluctuating oil prices
6) Market Share
---------------------------------
I'm hoping these are all correct, in my opinion, the hardest one was the labour turnover one.

I won't post everything I put in section B, but if there are specific parts of it being discussed I would be more than happy to include myself within the discussion.

FOR THOSE OF YOU DOING UNIT 2A: Managing the business (business studies), do not worry. You would of had a different paper.

On another note, WOOOOH, AS exams are finally over.

I came to my answer because capacity utilization refers to how much of the possible potential output you are using up. By increasing working hours, staff will produce more per unit of input because they have been given a longer time to work etc.
Why is the discussion for this exam so non-existent?

Under utilisation is when something is lying idle somewhere. Increasing working hours doesn't increase to the yield. By removing some stock they aren't stretching themselves too far (operating at over-utilisation).

The longer hours would also increase the potential maximum so not necessarily increase capacity utilisation
