Look at this graph of real wage index in England between 1260 and 1800. Consider also that, in the bubonic plague of 1348 and1351, between one quarter and one third of Europe's population died.M.Bubonic Statute ofplagueLabourers1401001260 13481800200010040Kett'srebellionPeasantsGloriousRevolutionrebellion201260132013801440150015601620168017401800Select one or more:O a. According to the Malthusian model, the fall in the population due to the bubonic plague would have led to an increase inthe average productivity of workers, causing the observed rise in the real wage post-plague.O b. The doubling and halving of the real wage index over 250 years from around 1350 cannot be explained by the Malthusianmodel.O C. The fall in the unskilled workers' share of total output in the 17th and. 18th centuries was due to the fall in their averageproduct of labour.O d. In the Malthusian model, the rise in real wages from 1800 onwards, at the same time as the rise in population, could beexplained by continuous technological improvement.

The graph shows the aggregate demand for labor in a small country with a civilian population of 100,000 persons. The labor force participation rate in this country is only 30% and it does not depend on the level of real wage. Wages and prices are fully flexible downwards and upwards. Start from the base case. Suppose that due to changes in social norms, the participation rate of women in the labor force increases. As a result, the overall labor force participation rate increases to 50.00% Ceteris paribus, this event causes the equilibrium real wage to change to units.
Suppose that the United States cracks down on illegal immigrants and returns millions of workers to their home countries. Draw a labor supply curve and a labor demand curve for the United States. Label the curves LS, and LDO Draw a point to show the equilibrium quantity of labor and the equilibrium real wage rate. Label it 1. Now suppose the United States returns millions of illegal immigrant workers to their home countries. Draw and label a curve that shows the effect of this return of workers. Draw a point to show the new equilibrium quantity of labor and the equilibrium real wage rate. Label it 2.
In a country called Uncle Sam Land (USL), the labor demand curve is given by:W = K- 4LWhere W is the wage rate, K is a variabledetermined by accumulated capital stock in thecountry, and L is the labor force in the country.K= 50 is supplied by the capitalists.If the labor force in this country goes up from 10 to 11, what happens to the national income in USL?National Income = income of all workers + income of all capitalists.Select one:a. Does not changeb. Goes down by 44c. Goes up by 8d. Goes up by 26e. None of the above.

Suppose that a consumer cannot vary hours of work as he or she chooses. In particular, he or she must choose between working g hours and not working at all, whereg> 0. Suppose that dividend income is zero, and that the consumer pays a tax Tif he or she works, and receives a benefit b when not working, interpreted as an unemployment insurance payment. a Click the icon to view information about the initial model used here.

What does this have to say about what we would observe about the behaviour of actual consumers when wages change?
