You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about and then I will explain.Have you watched our free lectures on ‘accounting for labour’ which explain everything needed to be able to answer this question? The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
