C -- by process of elimination, though it's not an exact syllabus term. This question and the previous one are odd, where did you get them from?

Hey I got them from the leading edge text book from my school library. I think you got some of them wrong.

can you explain, why ???

its goes like this c, d and c

you got the last one right ??

can you explain why you chose institutional over political ??

for the 2nd one you chose inertia, its kind of right but b sound right also but in the back it says social considerations is right ??

and for the first one, i dont even get the question ??

the answer is employees and managment ??

wired questions ??

Because those things are not political in nature. Political influences refers to the government and its policies.

Social considerations was my next guess but as it's not a syllabus term I didn't think it'd be the answer. My reasoning was that they would be reluctant to implement a "labour-saving" technology as it would result in retrenchments (i.e. they are considering the social aspects such as the fact that it would result in [short-term] unemployment etc).

Neither... I assume that management don't have a choice in folding. :\


Poor questions yeah, I haven't seen many HSC questions that ambiguous.
