According to the passage, all of the following contribute to an increase in employee earnings, except
Answer: D
The one item that does not raise employee earnings, according to the passage, is increased capital investment.
The second sentence of the passage lists the ways: raising the selling price of the firm's products and services, reducing profits or the costs of raw materials, or augmenting labour productivity. Options A, B and C restate these three routes in order.
Capital investment appears only as something that suffers when profit is reduced ('reduced profit means less capital investment'), so it is a consequence of a way of paying more, never a way of raising earnings. D is therefore the exception the question asks for.
