Depict the following scenario using a graph. Assume that MLB goes from having free agency in their labor market to re-instituting the reserve clause, now giving teams monopsony power in the labor market. a. Identify on a graph the wage of a player when there was only free agency, and identify the wage following the reserve clause being reinstated. Additionally identify where the producer and consumer surplus is in the market on the graph. b. Suppose instead that MLB does NOT have any monopsony power, however, the players are able to form a powerful union. Depict how the union would change the equilibrium wages accepted by players.

Consider the following simplified scenario. Imagine that the Australian national rugby union (for short, Rugby AU) has exclusive rights to organize the games played by the national team. Rugby AU decides that the next match, between the Wallabies and the All Blacks (i.e., the Australian and the New Zeeland national rugby teams), will be hosted at the Marvel Stadium in Melbourne. Rugby AU has no fixed costs for organizing the game, but it must pay a marginal cost MC of $20 per seat to the owners of the Marvel Stadium. Two types of tickets will be sold for the game: concession and full fare. Based on any official document that attests to their age, children and pensioners qualify to purchase concession tickets that offer a discounted price; everyone else pays the full fare. The demand for full-fare tickets is QF(P) = 120 – 2P. The demand for concession tickets is QC(P) = 80 – 2P. 1. The market for full fare tickets (F)a) Calculate the inverse demand, write the profit maximizing…
