Consider a labor market where the matching function UV is given by H (U,V) = A, where A=0.5. U+V' There are U = 3 job seekers and V = 6 job openings. The probability for a job seeker to find a job in a given period of time is Round your answers to 2 decimal places (for example, 3.454 should be rounded down to 3.45, and 3.455 should be rounded up to 3.46).

Consider worker 1 with non-labour income Y facing a wage offer w and a utility function defined over consumption and leisure. U(c,l) = lnC + 4lnl Queston: Show that the Slutsky equation holds for this worker
Suppose there are 100 workers in the economy in which all workers must choose to work a risky or a safe job. Worker 1’s reservation price for accepting the risky job is $1; worker 2’s reservation price is $2; and so on. Because of technological reasons, there are only 10 risky jobs.a. What is the equilibrium wage differential between safe and risky jobs? Which workers will be employed at the risky firm?b. Suppose now that an advertising campaign paid for by the employers who offer risky jobs stresses the excitement associated with “the thrill of injury,” and this campaign changes the attitudes of the workforce toward being employed in a risky job.Worker 1 now has a reservation price of $10 (that is, she is willing to pay $10 for the right to work in the risky job); worker 2’s reservation price is $9; and so on. There are still only 10 risky jobs. What is the new equilibrium wage differential?
Consider the potted plant industry, which has a competitive labor market. A potted plant sells for $10. The Lth worker hired in the industry produces an additional 1000 – L potted plants. The labor supply curve in the potted plant industry is W = 1000 + 10L. Find the equilibrium wage hired in the industry. Find the equilibrium number of workers hired in the industry.
Utility. Suppose we have two cities, 1 and 2. Assume every individual has the same utility function given by: u(w;,r;) = 4 * WJ - 0.75 * r; where j = 1 or j = 2. Furthermore, for all parts of the problem assume the total population is fixed at 1, 000 and wages in each city are given by: W1 = 15W2 = 12 (a) What is the utility from each choice if r1 = 20 and 1'2 = 15. Is this an equilibrium? How do you know? (b) For the rest of the problem you can now assume that rents are increasing in the population of each city. Specifically, assume r1(L1) = 4 * L1 and T2 (L2) = 8 * L2. Compute the equilibrium population of each city equilibrium rents.
A new manager recently was given an assignment to create two possible wage schemes for a design firm. The manager came up with the following packages: (1) Each employee will start at RM15 per hour and will work eight hours per day; (2) each employee will receive $8 per hour and one-tenth of 1 percent of profits (expected profits are RM80,000 per day if everyone puts out maximum effort). Which program will motivate the employees more? Which program would you choose? Why?

Suppose that education is the only factor that affects productivity and that an additional year of education raises wages by 2%. Suppose in 2011 gender wage gap was 13%, and the average man had 15 years of education while the average women had 14 years of schooling. a) Using the wage gap decomposition technique, calculate how much of the 13% wage differential is due to discrimination? b) Now suppose in 2021 the gender wage gap is 10%, but the average woman’s education level is increased to 17 year and the average man’s education increases to16 years. (Assume that the return to education stays same at 2%), Was there a decrease or an increase in wage discrimination in the decade? Why?
Gerhart & Newman (2020) discuss how compensation (pay) may be a measure of justice, i.e., gender, race, culture, etc. They further state that stockholders are interested in executive pay. Why does it matter, and how is it fixed? How risky are these decisions to employee retention?
The answer is s = 20/57 I need step by step calculation
