Preface: The following information applies to the years 2011 through 2015 In recent years the press and the manufacturing industry have been constantly writing about a supposed "skills-gap" in the American workforce. The premise propagated by the press and manufacturing executives is that there are hundreds of thousands of unfilled positions in the manufacturing sector because employers simply can't find workers with the necessary math or technical skills to fill the positions. The press and the industry have blamed a wide variety of factors for the supposed shortages, such as blaming the public educational system for not preparing workers with the right technical skills, purporting that younger generations do not want to work in manufacturing because of a perceived stigma associated with manufacturing jobs, and they have also stated that younger generations do not want to work in manufacturing because it is perceived as highly volatile and susceptible to the ups and downs of the…

Immigration is a multi-faceted phenomenon, with the potential for both large-scale and industry- specific effects. Consider the following two effects of immigration that could occur in a specific market: • More consumers are now in the market. • The price of labor goes down due to increased competition in the labor market. Focusing only on these two effects, what would we expect to happen to prices and quantities in this market? Note labor is used as an input in all industries. a. Prices will decrease, but quantities could increase, decrease, or stay the same. b. Prices will increase, but quantities could increase, decrease, or stay the same. c. Quantities will decrease, but prices could increase, decrease, or stay the same. d. Quantities will increase, but prices could increase, decrease, or stay the same.

Describe, with an aid of a graph, the effect of an increase in the price of trucks on the equilibrium wage rate and equilibrium level of employment in the market for truck drivers. Dentify the two different categories of trade unions and clearly distinguishbetween them. ( Use an example of each category of trade union to support your answer.) Briefly describe any three reasons why labour markets may be imperfectlycompetitive.
As the baby boomers retire what happens in the labor market? Multiple Choice. O O Labor supply decreases. Labor supply increases. Labor demand increases. Labor demand decreases.
Look at the diagram below. Let's assume that aggregate demand declines and a recession occurs, which causes a decrease in the demand for labor. Assuming prices, wages and salaries are sticky, then what is the total excess labor? Salary $45,000 $25,000 5000 11000 19000 Labor S D₁ Do
Suppose the demand for the Vietnamese inexpensive products from many countries over the world have increased by about 15 percent even under the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020 (from January through August). Suppose further that the demand for Vietnamese skilled workers by the Vietnamese companies producing new high-tech and advanced products have decreased by about 10 percent in 2020 compared to those in 2019. What has happened to the wage gap between Vietnamese skilled and unskilled workers in 2020? Which of the following is MOST appropriate for an answer? A. The wage gap is most likely to fall. B. It is hard to predict unambiguously how the wage gap changes given above information. C. The wage gap is most likely to rise. D. The wage gap is most likely to be little changed. Perhaps b and c weren't the answer. Please let me know why the answer you chose is correct.
The graphs below show demand for labor in two countries, A and B, and several vertical labor supply curves. Use these diagrams to answer the question about the effects of migration from one country to the other in search of a higher wage. Let the amount of migration (change in labor supply) be equal to the (identical) horizontal distance between the supply curves in both graphs. Country B Country A Se SB WB SA SA WA d PB h b a DA LB LA What is the effect of this migration on the welfare of workers who migrate? They gain area g They gain area (g+h+e) They gain area (a+b+c). O They gain area (g+h)
