- QUESTION 7 Which of the following will result in a leftward shift of the market demand curve for labor (ceteris paribus)? a. an increase in labor productivity b.a decrease in the firm's product price Oc an increase in demand for the firm's product Od an increase in the wage rateWhich of the following would increase the supply of labor? There’s a decrease in the number of workers The amounts of capital firms have increases The productivity of workers increases Immigration increases the number of workersThe graph above shows a labor market where the downward-sloping curve is firm demand for labor and the upward-sloping curve is the worker supply curve. The vertical axis shows the hourly wage and the horizontal axis shows the number of full-time workers. Suppose a minimum wage of $9 is instituted. How many unemployed workers will result from the minimum wage? (Note: An unemployed worker is anyone who wants to work but cannot find a job.)
- Billy is hiring workers to help him install solar panels. The table below presents the marginal product (in terms of solar panels installed per week) of various workers. Assume this is a perfectly competitive market. a. What is the marginal revenue product of each worker if the current market price to install one solar panel is $50? What if the current market price is $100? $150? Using the table below, fill in the “Marginal Revenue Product” columns for each price. Labor Productivity and Marginal Revenue Product for Solar Panel Installers Labor (workers) Marginal Product (solar panels) Marginal Revenue Product for P = $50 (dollars) Marginal Revenue Product for P = $100 (dollars) Marginal Revenue Product for P = $150 (dollars) 1 14 $ $ $ 2 12 3 10 4 8 5 6 6 4 7 2 b.

Use the calculator to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to the calculator.

Then indicate whether this wage will result in a shortage or a surplus. Hint: Be sure to pay attention to the units used on the graph and in the table. For example, type in 100 for 100,000 workers. Labor Demanded Labor Supplied Wage (Thousands of workers) (Thousands of workers) Shortage or Surplus? $12.50 Suppose the federal government contemplates a new law that would create a…ECON 122: Short Writing Assignment #3 Suppose there are two different labor markets, A and B, each with identical demand for labor curves. If the Supply curves are also identical, draw a graph of each labor market in the space below: Now, assume that Market A's working conditions - for some reason - become much harsher than that for Market B (perhaps they are more dangerous or unhealthy). Illustrate how this development would impact your graph(s) above. What impact would this have on the wages in Market A relative to Market B? How about on total employment in each market? Why?
- Which of the following is not correct? In a labor market, the wage adjusts to balance the supply and demand for labor. A profit-maximizing firm hires workers so long as the wage rate exceeds the value of the marginal product of labor. Any event that changes the supply or demand for labor must change the equilibrium wage. Any event that changes the supply or demand for labor must change the value of the marginal product.WAGES (Dollars perteacher) Suppose that the states pass a law that prohibits home schooling and requires that all children attend public schools. Assume home- schooled children were being taught by parents who would not become public school teachers as a result of the new legislation. The following graph depicts the labor market for public school teachers. The market for public school teachers is perfectly competitive. Adjust the graph to show the effect of this legislation on the market for public school teachers. Note: Select and drag one of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. The wages for teachers will QUANTITY (Teachers) Supply Demand Demand Supply ? and the quantity of teachers in the classroom willReferred to the above graph of the labor market. The government decides to impose a wage tax as shown on the graph. If the number of workers hired after the imposition of the tax is 800 then the total amount of tax is $___
- Assume that firm x produces lotion. After a few months of being in business there is a significant increase in the demand for lotion . Using a diagram explain the impact that this would have on the demand for workers to produce lotion1. Assume the quantity of envelopes licked per hour by Sticky Gums, Inc., is where L is the number of laborers hired per hour by the firm. Assume further that the envelope licking business is perfectly competitive with a market price of 1 cent per envelope. A. How much labor would be hired at a competitive wage of $10? What about $5? $2? Use these results to sketch a demand curve for labor. B. Assume that Sticky Gums hires its labor at an hourly wage of $10 what quantity of envelopes will be licked when the price of a licked envelope is 2 cents? What about 5 cents? 10 cents? Use your results to sketch a supply curve for licked envelopes.Question 1 Candice's' Cookies is a new cookie delivery company in Gainesville, Florida. The firm hires local college students to sell cookies door-to-door in higher income neighborhoods.
