As per Cobb Douglas production function; Y = A(L^b)(K^a)
where A: factor productivity
L: Labor input
K: capital input
Now as immigration increases labor force thus real wages fall for the same amount of capital as surplus of labor will make labor wages lower.
Rental price of capital will increase as capital will be scarse resource in this case as demand of capital rises as more labor demand more capital.

Please help me to solve this problem, thank you so much. Part A. These questions help you review the Heckscher-Ohlins model. Determine whether each statement is T/F, and then briefly explain why. 32 points. 1. Consider the following Heckscher-Ohlin model. France and Italy produce wine and bread. Bread is capital intensive, while wine is labor intensive. France is capital abundant, while Italy is labor abundant.(22 points total, 2 points each) (1). Italy has a larger labor force than France.

Suppose a Cobb-Douglas Production function is given by the following: P(L,K) = 20LC- 90.1 where L is units of labor, K is units of capital, and P(L, K) is total units that can be produced with this labor/capital combination. Suppose each unit of labor costs $500 and each unit of capital costs $1,000. Further suppose a total of $200,000 is available to be...

PROBLEMS AND APPLICATIONS 1. Use the neoclassical theory of distribution to predict the impact on the real wage and the real rental price of capital of each of the following events: a. A wave of immigration increases the labor force b. An earthquake destroys some of the capital c. A technological advance improves the d. High inflation doubles the prices of all factors stock production function. and outputs in...
