Assume an economy has a population of working age of 83 million and unemployment rate is 4%. Further, the average productivity of labour is 80,000 and the average mark-up in the economy (µ) is 5%. The wage-setting curve for this economy is given by real wage = 55,000 + 25, 000X, with X representing the employment rate. The labour market is in equilibrium. (a) Calculate the equilibrium real wage of the economy. (b) Calculate the employment rate of the economy. Calculate the number of employed workers in the economy. (d) s) Calculate the participation rate of the economy.
