Assume that the supply of law-skilled worker is fairly elastic, but the employers demand for such workers is fairly inelastic. If the policy goal is to expand employment for low-skilled workers, is it better to focus on policy tools to shift the supply of unskilled labor or on tools to shift the demand for unskilled labor? What if the policy goal is to raise wages for this group? Explain your answer with supply and demand diagrams.
Predict how each of the following economic changes will affect the equilibrium price and quantity in the financial market for home loans. Sketch a demand and supply diagram to support your answers. The number of people at the most common ages for home-buying increases. People gain confidence that the economy is growing and that their jobs are secure. Banks that have made home loans find that a larger number of people than they expected are not repaying these loans. Because of a threat of a war, people become uncertain about their economic future. The overall level of saving, in the economy diminishes. The federal government changes its bank regulations in a way that makes it cheaper and easier for banks to make home loans.
Predict how each of the following events will raise or lower the equilibrium wage and quantity of oil worker in Texas. In each case, sketch a demand and supply diagram to illustrate your answer. The price of oil rises. New all-drilling equipment is invented that is cheap and requires few workers to run. Several major companies that do not drill oil open factories in Texas, offering many well-paid jobs outside the oil industry. Government imposes costly new regulations to make oil-drilling a safer job.
