Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Quantitative studies usually involve concepts that are fairly well developed and for which reliable methods of measurement have been (or can be) developed. Qualitative studies are often undertaken because a researcher wants to develop a rich and context-bound understanding of a poorly understood phenomenon. In this case, a qualitative approach would be most appropriate for addressing this question.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale 1: The marginal revenue product (marginal benefit) should be greater than the wage rate (marginal expense).
Rationale 2: The hospital should hire additional nurses as long as the marginal revenue product (i.e., the marginal benefit) is greater than the wage rate (i.e., the marginal expense).
Rationale 3: The marginal revenue product (marginal benefit) should be greater than the wage rate (marginal expense).
Rationale 4: The marginal revenue product (marginal benefit) should be greater than the wage rate (marginal expense).
