Answer to Problem 2CYU
The demand curve for labor would shift to the right when service industries experience an increase in demand
Explanation of Solution
When service industries experience an increase in demand and are relatively more labor than nonservice industries, the demand curve for labor would shift to the right because the industries are labor focused. And, an increase in the number of firms that are labor intensive will increase the demand for labor in the market, which is responsible to shift the demand curve for labor to the right.
Introduction: A demand curve is a graphical representation that shows how sensitive demand is toward the price of a good or service.
Supply is the availability of goods and services in the market.

Whether the demand curve for fishers in state M shift to the right, left, or remains unchanged when there is a decrease in the number of fish caught per day by commercial fishers in the state M and the price of fish is unaffected due to growing supply elsewhere.
b)
Answer to Problem 2CYU
The demand curve for fishers would shift to the left when there is a decrease in the number of fish caught per day by commercial fishers in the state M.
Explanation of Solution
When there is a decrease in the number of fish caught per day by commercial fishers in the state M and the price of fish is unaffected due to growing supply elsewhere then, the demand curve for fishers in state M would shift to the left because the price of fish is unchanged and decrease in the supply of fish would result in a decrease in the number of fishermen.

Labor is the human capital or human resource that is the factor of production for any firm.

To understand the economic rationale behind this, economists turn to the basic consumer theory model of budget constraints and indifference curves. Recall that an indifference curve maps out all possible consumption bundles of goods that yield the same level of utility to a given consumer. Indifference curves tell us nothing about what we can afford, but rather tell us how happy a particular bundle will make us. On the other hand, a budget constraint shows the consumption bundles that we can buy given our income and the prices of goods. Similarly, a budget constraint says nothing about what we would like to buy, but rather what we can afford. Suppose you consume only two types of goods: magazines and food. You have $300…arrow_forward
