Nothing about that statement makes sense. For one thing, furniture assembly is normally paid for by piecework. Each assembler&#x27;s personal speed level makes no difference. If furniture isn&#x27;t getting built fast enough, more assemblers are hired or existing assemblers work more hours.<p>&quot;All other conditions being the same&quot; - a business operated only by women will be very different from one operated only by men. All other conditions will not be the same. There will be different assembly line procedures, different levels of teamwork and communication, different expectations about how much work must be done and how many items must be sold, different customer interactions.<p>&quot;The female business would be more profitable. Which wouldn&#x27;t make any sense.&quot; This statement is meaningless.
