Suppose that the legislature in this western province passes laws that make it easy for workers to join a union. Through collective bargaining, the union negotiates a wage of $16 per hour. Use the black point (plus symbol) to show how many union workers will be employed at the $16 wage. (Hint: Be sure to place the point on the appropriate curve.)

QUESTION 19 Refer to the following diagram. Wages in both the union and nonunion sectors are initially $10. The union then negotiates a wage rate of $12. The post-negotiation nonunion wage is not yet known. Union $12 $10 S VMP Labor $10 Nonunion VMP Labor The product-market effect would be modeled by shifting the nonunion supply curve to the right, increasing the measured union wage advantage. nonunion demand curve to the right, reducing the measured union wage advantage. Ⓒ union demand curve to the right, increasing the measured union wage advantage. union supply curve to the right, reducing the pure union wage advantage.
