The following graph gives the labor market for laboratory aides in the imaginary country of Sophos. The equilibrium hourly wage is $10, and theequilibrium number of laboratory aides is 150.Suppose the federal government of Sophos has decided to institute an hourly payroll tax of $4 on laboratory aides and wants to determine whetherthe tax should be levied on the workers, the employers, or both (in such a way that half the tax is collected from each party).Use the graph input tool to evaluate these three proposals. Entering a number into the Tax Levied on Employers field (initially set at zero dollars perhour) shifts the demand curve down by the amount you enter, and entering a number into the Tax Levied on Workers field (initially set at zero dollarsper hour) shifts the supply curve up by the amount you enter. To determine the before-tax wage for each tax proposal, adjust the amount in theWage field until the quantity of labor supplied equals the quantity of labor demanded. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph.Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly.WAGE (Dollars per hour)SupplyD 30 80 90 120 150 180 210 240 270 300LABOR (Number of workers)Levied onEmployers(Dollars per hour)402Der and+iII I ITax ProposalLevied onWorkers(Dollars perhour)0Graph Input ToolMarket for Laboratory AidesWage(Dollars per hour)42Quantity Hired(Number ofworkers)Labor Demanded(Number of workers)Demand ShifterTax Levied onEmployers(Dollars per hour)For each of the proposals, use the previous graph to determine the new number of laboratory aides hired.

The written warning included notice that "further violations will result in disciplinary actions," including suspension or discharge. A short time after the written warning was issued, Joan called work to say she was not going to be in because her babysitter had called in sick and she had to stay home and care for her young child. Joan's supervisor, Sylvia, told her that she had already exceeded the allowed number of absences and warned that if she did not report to work, she could be suspended. When Joan did not report for her shift, Sylvia suspended her for fifteen days. In a subsequent hearing, Joan argued that…

The following graph gives the labor market for laboratory aides in the imaginary country of Episteme. The equilibrium hourly wage is $10, and the equilibrium number of laboratory aides is 150. Suppose the federal government of Episteme has decided to institute an hourly payroll tax of $4 on laboratory aides and wants to determine whether the tax should be levied on the workers, the employers, or both (in such a way that half the tax is collected from each party). Use the graph input tool to evaluate these three proposals. Entering a number into the Tax Levied on Employers field (initially set at zero dollars per hour) shifts the demand curve down by the amount you enter, and entering a number into the Tax Levied on Workers field (initially set at zero dollars per hour) shifts the supply curve up by the amount you enter.

We know that supply of labor can increase either because of an increase in labor force participation rate or an increase in civilian population. We saw the effect of the former above. This question is about the latter. The table above shows some pieces of information about the labor market condition in a country. It shows the number of workers demanded in the country at different levels of real wage. It also shows the labor force participation rates at those real wage levels. For example, if the real wage is 60, only 30% of the civilian population will participate in the labor force. If the real wage is…
