Which of the following statements is correct? If potential employers could observe the productivities of different individuals, but still offer different salaries to man and women, the employers are having statistical discrimination. The findings of Charles & Guryan (2008) suggest that the black-white wage gap in the U.S. is unaffected by the prejudices of the most prejudiced persons in a state, which provides evidence against the taste-based discrimination in the U.S. There are two hypothetical countries. Each country has three people. In County A, the wealth of the three persons are respectively 9, 10, and 11. In Country B, the wealth of the three persons is respectively 4, 6, and 9. As measured by the standard deviation of wealth, Country A has lower wealth inequality. Consider a graph where the probability of injury is represented on the horizontal axis, and the wage is represented on the vertical axis. The isoprofit curves on this graph are typically downward sloping.
