Initially the market has
Ld = 100000 - w and Ls = 10000 + 2w
This gives
100000 - w = 10000 + 2w
w* = 90000/3 = $30000
It is given that the equilibrium wage will remain unchanged in both cases. Select the first option, wage = $30,000.
Add Answer to:
equilibrium wage?

Question 7 1 points Save Answer Consider the following labor market Labor demand: LD = ad-w Labor supply: LS = as - 2w where w is the wage, L is the number of workers, ap and as are constants Now suppose that business owners predict low sales next year so they reduce hiring and as a result, ap=70,000 and as=10,000. But in this scenario wages are totally rigid and cannot adjust this year from its original level...

where w is the wage, L is the number of workers, aD
and aS are constants
Suppose business owners predict low sales next year, so they
reduce hiring. As a result, aD=70,000 and
aS=10,000.

Problem #4: Own-price elasticity Suppose the market labor demand curve is given by LD 20- (1/2)W and the market labor supply curve is given by LS-2W 1. Graph the labor demand curve and the labor supply curve on the same graph (with L on the horizontal axis and W on the vertical axis, as we have done in class). 2.
