1. Consider a firm in a perfectly competitive industry that must decide how much labor to hire (in the short run, i.e., in the background the capital is fixed). The firm’s marginal product of labor is 110-5L. It takes as given an output price P = 2, and the wage = 20. a. Please calculate the optimal quantity of labor for this firm to hire within this setting. b. Would a monopsonist employer in this same situation hire more or less labor? Why? c. Discuss a possible basis for state regulations of employment within 'company towns'.

Refer to the graph. Comparing monopsony with pure competition in the sale of output and hiring of labor services, the difference in the wage rate will be: A: W1-W2 B: W2-W3 C: W1-W3 D: W0-W1
Assume a monopsony uses only one factor, i.e. labor, L, to produce a final good, Q, which is sold in a competitive market at the price p = 1 to maximise profits. The production function of the monopsonist is given by Q (L) = 100L - 1L². The inverse supply curve for labor is w(L) = 2 20 + 2 L. a. Derive and describe the monopsony's inverse demand curve for labor. b. Describe algebraically and graphically how many units of labor the monopsony hires and at what wage. Describe the nature of monopsony power and provide economic intuition.
The graph below represents the labor supply curve of a monopsonistic firm. If the firm above hired labor at the quantity Q1, what wage rate would it pay? A-W1. B-W2. C-W3. D-W4. E-W5
11) What is a monopsony? Show the graph of a monopsony with the going wage and number of workers employed.
Q63
You are given the following information about a monopsonist: The demand is P= 25-0.25Q, the average expenditure curve is AE = 0.5Q, and the marginal expenditure curve is ME = 1Q. The quantity (Q) is in thousands of units. Given the information above, how much will the monopsonist purchase, and how much will it pay? (Round your responses to two decimal places.) The monopsonist will purchase thousand units at a price of $ per unit.
We discussed the impacts of both a monopsony as well a monopoly on the labour market. Combine the results of these two situations to discuss the ramifications on wages and employment if a firm was both a monopoly and monopsony.
