Graph the isocost line associated with a wage of $10 per hour and a price of capital of $50 for total costs of $200, $ 240, and $300. Suppose the wage rises to $15 and the price of capital stays at $50. Show how the isocost line moves for the case in which total costs are $300.

Weiwei gets a part-time job in high school that pays $5 per hour with flexible hours. Shechooses to work 6 hours per week, earning $30 per week. After a while, her job reduces herpay to $4 an hour. In response, she cuts back to working 5 hours per week, earning only$20 per week. Weiwei’s parents feel bad about the pay cut, and decide to give her a weeklyallowance, in cash, to make up for it. If they want to get her back to her old utility level,how much should they give her and why? (Select one answer from below) : (a) $10: that is her total amount of lost earnings(b) Between $10 and $6: that is the income effect minus the substitution effect(c) Between $10 and $6: leisure is a luxury good for high school students(d) $6: that is how much she would have lost if she kept working 6 hours(e) $5: the substitution effect offsets the change in labor hours(f) Between $6 and $0: she will substitute away from labor at the old bundle(g) Between $5 and $0: a pay cut is like a negative in-kind…

Assume a firm is trying to produce q0 units of output at the lowest total cost. The wage decreases, rotating the isocost line as shown in the below graph. Make the necessary changes to the graph to show the input combination that will now produce q0 at the lowest total cost. Make sure you show the new levels of labor and capital.

Question 39 Inna runs a small jewelry shop. They hire one helper and they expect to pay them wages of $20,000 per year, pays annual rent of $7,000, and spends $15,000 per year on materials. They have $20,000 of their own funds invested in equipment that could earn them $2,000 per year if alternatively invested. They has been offered $15,000 per year to work as a jeweler for a competitor. Total annual revenue from sales is $92,000.

Time left 1:30:35 Suppose you are given the following output and (incomplete) cost table (assume labor is the only variable input and that all workers are paid an equal wage rate): Labor Output 0 0 2 3 4 100 units 270 units 570 units 650 units Fixed Cost Variable Cost C. a. an amount less than $15 b. an amount between $15 and $25 an amount between $25 and $35 d. an amount between $35 and $45 e. an amount greater than $45 Total Cost $50,000 Average Variable Cost undefined What is marginal cost when the third worker is employed? $61.53
Noel's sandwich shop incurs these costs while in business: $6,000 in wages, $2000 on leasing equipment; $3,000 on leasing the building; $2,000 on food, and $1,000 on utilities. All of these costs, with the exception of leasing costs on equipment and the building, can vary, depending on how many sandwiches Noel sells. What is the sunk cost for this sandwich shop?

Ginny currently earns a (a. nominal; b. real) wage of $12.00 per hour; in other words, the amount of her paycheck each week is $12.00 per hour times the number of hours she works. Suppose the price of sparkling water is $2.00 per gallon; in this case, Ginny's (a. real; b. nominal) wage, in terms of the amount of sparkling water she can buy with her paycheck, is (blank) gallons of sparkling water per hour. When workers and firms negotiate compensation packages, they have expectations about the price level (and changes in the price level) and agree on a (a. nominal; b. real) wage with those expectations in mind. If the price level turns out to be higher than expected, a worker's (a. real; b. nominal) wage is (a. lower; b. higher) than both the worker and employer expected when they agreed to the wage. Ginny and her employer both expected inflation to be 3% between 2012 and 2013, so they agreed, in a two-year contract, that she…
