C
Increase SRAS
D
Decrease SRAS
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -These increased labor costs would cause business expenses to increase; as a result, firms would have lower output as they have less money to spend on production. Firms lowering output equals a decrease in SRAS.

Detailed explanation-2: -The SRAS curve slopes up for two reasons: sticky input prices (like wages) and sticky output prices (also called “menu costs”).

Detailed explanation-3: -A shift in the SRAS curve to the right results in a greater real GDP and downward pressure on the price level if aggregate demand remains unchanged.
