What is the equilibrium employment level? Question 2 Consider the following labor market Labor demand: L ap- w Labor supply: LS = as 2w where w is the wage, Lis the number of workers, ap and as are constants a) Suppose that ap 100,000 and as10,000: find the equilibrium employment level L*30,000 L*35,000 L60,000 L70,000
Consider the following model of the labor market in the United States. Suppose that the labor market consists of two parts, a market for skilled workers and the market for unskilled workers, with different demand and supply curves for each as given below. The initial wage for skilled workers is $20 per hour; the initial wage for unskilled workers is $7 per hour. a. Draw the demand and supply curves for the two markets so that they intersect at the...
9. Consider a Classical model with the following specifications in Q1, 2019: . Labor Supply: NS-1%, Cobb-Douglas Production Function . The Quantity Theory of Money accurately describes aggregate demand, The Theory of Distribution holds, Parameter values: [y, a, A, K, M, V] [30,0.3, 130, 500, 2500,40]. Suppose a reduction in labor law regulations leads to an outward shift in labor supply, represented as an increase in y from 30 to 32 during Q2, 2019. Assume that everything else stays the...
demand and supply 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...

2. Consider the following model of the labour market. where w is the wage rate, Ld is labour demanded by the firms and Ls is labour supplied by workers What condition should δ satisfy in order for the second equation to be a reasonable labour supply function (i) What condition should satisfy in order for this system to have a unique equilibrium. (iii) Assume that δ = 1, express the systemin matrix form and use matrix algebra to find the...

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 2 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. Determine the equilibrium employment (L and wage (W in this market 3. Now suppose the government implements a minimum...
