Planes frequently push back from the gate on time, but then wait 2 feet away from the gate until it is time to queue up for takeoff. This increases fuel consumption and increases the time that passengers must sit in a cramped plane awaiting takeoff. The following table shows the pay schedule for the flight crew.

Pay	Flight Attendant	Captain	First Officer
Per diem	$3	$3	$3
Holding pay per hour	$20	$20	$20
Hourly wage (after push back)	$38	$184	$50

Per diem pay indicates how much the flight crew earns once it checks into the airport. Holding pay indicates how much the flight crew earns after it loads the plane. Hourly wage indicates how much the flight crew earns after it pushes back from the gate and turns on the beacon.

In this scenario, who has an incentive to push back from the gate as early as possible?Check all that apply.
