This is pretty standard stuff that you will find in any introductory economics class . And the standard stuff are models making huge assumptions . For example , it is very possible that increased labor costs only reduces profit but doesn ' t eliminate it . As such , it may not make sense to reduce hours because doing so may actually result in a greater loss than just paying a bit more for labor in essence , the employer makes XO where X was the original profit and O is the additional overtime costs , If O is less than X , the employer still earns more even with the overtime increased but just less than if there was no overtime increase . <| sep |> Why there ' s no aphroo or Stixxay standart jerseys ? <| sep |> 3 rd and 20 ?
