5. Elasticity of labor supply is defined as: Percentage change in quantity of labor supplied Percentage change in wage rate Assume that in Illinois 1,000,000 hours of labor are supplied at the current minimum wage. Then the minimum wage rises 20%, from $8.25/hr. to $9.90/hr. How many more hours of labor will workers be willing to supply at the new minimum wage if elasticity of labor supply is 0,55?
Q1.
10 If the supply curve shifts right and the demand curve remains unchanged price increases; quantity increases price decreases; quantity increases price increases; quantity increases, decreases or is unchanged price increases; quantity decreases
13. Suppose over the next several years the level of income and wealth rises in the state of Florida. For the housing market this would mean: An increase in the quantity of houses demanded, rising prices and an increase in supply. An increase in the demand for houses, rising prices and an increase in quantity supplied. An increase in the quantity of houses demanded shortages and higher prices. A decrease in the quantity of houses supplied as demand increases. Price gouging in this market would be rampant.
14. Understanding changes in equilibrium price and quantity Suppose you are an analyst in the oil refinery industry and are responsible for estimating the equilibrium price and quantity of home heating oil. To do so, you must consider factors that can affect the supply of and demand for heating oil. Determinants of the demand for heating oil include household income, the price of an oil furnace (a complementary good for heating oil), and the price of natural gas (a substitute good for heating oil). Determinants of the supply of heating oil include the cost of crude oil and the cost of refining crude oil into home heating oil. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to the graph parameters. (Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly.)

Respond to the following matching statements with regard to the definition of supply. Match 1: The claim that other things being equal, the quantity supplied of a good increase when the price of that good rises. This matches the Law of Supply. Match 2: A graphical object showing the relationship between the price of a good and the amount that sellers are willing and able to supply at various prices. This matches the Supply curve. O Both matches are false O Match 2 is correct and Match 1 is false. O Both matches are correct. O Match 1 is correct and Match 2 is false. Next 1 Previous
