What would seem to be Costco$$s rationale for paying their employees far above the market rate for competitors $($compared to stores like Wal$-$mart$)?$

Is this just wasting money?

Group of answer choices

the CEO wanted to keep unions out by paying more

get higher performing employees than other stores who would work longer hours

pay more in base pay and pay less on health benefits and retirement

the pay is based on one$-$time bonuses and incentives instead of hourly pay

save on cost of turnover since fewer people leave
