Arrange the following steps in the correct order to describe how an increase in wages affects labor demand in the market: A) Employers reduce the number of jobs offered, B) Workers supply more labor, C) Higher wages lead to a decrease in labor demand, D) Increased wages attract more job seekers.

When wages increase, it can change how many workers employers are willing to hire. First, higher wages lead to a decrease in labor demand because employers may not want to pay more for the same work, so they might reduce the number of jobs offered. At the same time, higher wages attract more job seekers, as more people are interested in applying for jobs that pay better. This means that while workers supply more labor because of the higher wages, the overall number of jobs available may actually go down. For example, if a company raises its starting salary but faces higher costs, it might decide to hire fewer employees to keep expenses manageable.
