As per policy we have to answer first question
6. Suppose that the supply curve for school teachers is Ls - 20,000 + 350W and...
6. Suppose that the supply curve for school teachers is Ls 20,000+350W and the 100,000-150W, where L = the number demand curve for school teachers is Ld of teachers and W the daily wage. a. Plot the demand and supply curves. b. What are the equilibrium wage and employment level in this market? .Now suppose that at any given wage 20,000 more workers are willing to work as school teachers. Plot the new supply curve and find the new wage...
Question 3 Suppose that the supply curve for schoolteachers is Ls = 20, 000+350W, and the demand C curve for schoolteachers is Lp 100, 000 - 150W, where L = the number of teachers and Wthe daily wage. 1. What are the equilibrium wage and employment levels in this market? 2. Now suppose that at any given wage, 20,000 more workers are willing to work as schoolteachers. Find the new wage and employment level. Why doesnt employment grow by 20,000?
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. Determine the equilibrium employment (L") and wage (W") in this market. Now suppose the government implements a minimum wage (WM)...
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...

9. Suppose that a monopsony faces a labor supply curve of Ls-2+2w. What wage does the firm paw if it wants to hire 10 workers? b. What is the marginal expense of hiring an 10 worker? c. Draw a sample (or the exact) Labor Supply curve. Now add in a sample, ME curve and MRP curve such that the equilibrium is at 10 workers and at the wage from part a. Label the equilibrium level of employment and the equilibrium...
5. Suppose the supply curve of physicists is given by w = 10 +5E, while the demand curve is given by w= 50 - 3E. a) Calculate the equilibrium wage and employment level. Calculate the labour demand elasticity at the equilibrium. Suppose now that the demand for physicists increases to w= 70 - 3E. What is the new equilibrium wage and employment level? b) Assume the market is subject to cobwebs. Draw a graph to illustrate the wage and employment...
Suppose that the labor market for high school chemistry teachers is initially in equilibrium. Chemistry teachers use laboratory chemicals as an important part of their jobs. New environmental regulations ban the use of many chemicals, which means that fewer laboratory chemicals are available for high school chemistry teachers to use in their jobs. In the market for high school chemistry teachers, the equilibrium wage Question 18 1 pts Suppose that the labor market for high school chemistry teachers is initially...
The market for waiters is defined by the following demand and supply curves: w = 20 ā 0.2ED (Demand) w = 13 + 0.1ES (Supply) a) Graph the demand and supply curves. Make sure the wage w is on the y-axis and employment E is on the x-axis. On the graph, indicate where the equilibrium wage and employment level would be by denoting them wā and Eā, respectively. b) Solve for equilibrium wage and employment. Now, suppose the industry buys...
In a competitive labor market, demand for workers is QD 20,000 100W, and supply is Qs 4,000 + 1,900W, where Q is the quantity of workers employed and W is the hourly wage. a) What is the initial equilibrium wage and employment level? b) Suppose that the government decides that $9 per hour is the minimum allowable wage in any market. What would the new employment level be? c) What would happen to total payments to labor? d) Would there...
