On a separate sheet of paper, draw a labor supply and demand diagram for a single firm in a competitive labor market. Remember, a competitive firm can hire as many workers as it likes at the market wage w* so supply of labor to the firm is horizontal. Label your axes, your supply and demand curves, and labor market equilibrium, w*, E*.
On a second graph, draw a labor supply and demand diagram for a non-discriminating monopsonist, where the monopsonist faces an upward sloping labor supply curve. Label the marginal cost of employment curve, and label profit maximizing wage, employment, and the value of marginal product of labor.

9、Let W and L denote the wage and the amount of labor employed, respectively. A firm faces the labor supply curve L = 2W - 6 and the marginal product of labor is given by MPL = 20 - L. The firm sells its output in a perfectly competitive market at $0.50 each. (a) If this labor market is perfectly competitive, find the equilibrium employment, the equilibrium wage, and the number of unemployed people. (b) Suppose that the government imposes...

Consider a monoposnistic labor market where one firm faces an upward sloping supply curve w = 8 + 0.2E and its demand for labor is given by VMPe = 50 - 0.3E. Thus it’s marginal cost of hiring is MCe = 8 + 0.4E. What level of E and w does the firm pick? What is worker and firm surplus? How does these values change if a minimum wage of $30 is instituted?

THIS IS ALL ONE QUESTION Assume the firm is a monopolist: Demand for labor is VMP = 35 – 0.004E, supply of labor is w = 5 + 0.01E, and Marginal cost of hiring workers is MC = 5 + 0.02E a. How much labor does the firm hire and at what wage when there is no minimum wage? b. How much labor would be employed if this was a perfectly competitive market? c. Draw the diagram and show the...

A monopsonist faces the following demand curve for their product: P = 20 - 0.005 XQ and the following labor supply curve: W = 10+ 0.05 x L If the firm does not mark-up the price over marginal cost, what is the profit-maximizing wage when average labor productivity is 5?

Suppose a monopoly producer is also a monopsonist in the labor market. Demand for the output is p = 100 - Q. The production function is Q = L, and the labor supply curve is w = 10 + L. How much labor does the firm hire? What wage is paid?
