Suppose the minimum wage in this economy is $11.10 per hour. An unemployed worker is defined as someone who is willing to work at the prevailing wage but is unable to find employment. Because the minimum wage lies above the equilibrium wage, it is binding, which means it is also the prevailing wage. If the wage is not allowed to fall below $11.10 per hour, the size of the unskilled labor force is workers are considered unemployed. The unemployment rate is defined as the percentage of unemployed workers in the labor force: Unemployment Rate = Unemployed Labor Force x 100 workers, and unskilled At a minimum wage of $11.10 per hour, the…Assume a firm is a monopsonist that can hire its first worker for $6 but must increase the wage rate by $3 to attract each successive worker (so that the second worker must be paid $9, the third $12, and so on). The marginal revenue product of labor is given in the table below. Marginal Revenue Product Units of Labor 1 $30 24 3 18 es 4 15 12 10 a. Draw the firm's labor supply and marginal resource cost curves. Instructions: (1) Use the tool provided 'Ls' to draw the labor supply curve (plot 6 points total). (2) Then use the tool provided 'MRP' to draw the marginal revenue product curve (plot 6 points total). (3) Finally, use the tool provided 'MRC' to draw the marginal resource cost curve (plot 6 points total). To earn full credit for this graph, you must plot all required points for each curve.

- Travel Time Each Way Price of a Dress Store (Minutes) (Dollars per dress) Local Department Store 15 100 Across Town 30 86 Neighboring City 60 63 Juanita makes $56 an hour at work. She has to take time off work to purchase her dress, so each hour away from work costs her $56 in lost income. Assume that returning to work takes Juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. As you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling. Complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of Juanita's time and the total cost of shopping at each location.

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.
