4) The demand for labor by an industry is given by the curve L = 1200 – 10w, where L is the labor demanded per day and w is the wage rate. The supply curve is given by L = 20w. What is the equilibrium wage rate and quantity of labor hired? What is the economic rent earned by workers? 5) Using the same information as in Exercise 4 above, suppose now that the only labor available is controlled by a monopolistic labor union that wishes to maximize the rent earned by union members. What will be the quantity of labor employed and the wage rate? How does your answer compare with your answer to Exercise 8? Discuss.

OCHESTER 1. (12 points) Supply and Demand for Riesling The Finger Lakes region of New York State is known for its Rieslings. The demand function for bottles of wine from this region (in 100,000s) has two variables average annual income of purchasers. The functional form is: Qd=-2Pd-5+0.0011, where the price of wine and the Qd is quantity sold, Pd is the price of one bottle of wine, and I is equal to average income. Assume average annual income today is $30,000. A) (3 points) Calculate and plot the demand curve. B) (3 points) Calculate and plot the demand curve for I = $35,000 on the same graph as used in part a. == C) (6 points) Now assume a supply curve, Qs = 25P, - 175. Plot the supply curve on the same graph. Compute the equilibrium prices and quantities for the two demand curves.
