Suppose the market for coffee shop workers is currently in equilibrium. If the supply of coffee shop workers increases, which of the following are consequences?
Select all that apply:
equilibrium wage will fall
equilibrium wage will rise
equilibrium quantity will fall
equilibrium quantity will rise
equilibrium wage will fall
Explanation: If the supply of coffee shop workers increases, the supply curve would shift towards the left. If the demand curve remains fixed, the wage will fall as a result.

Question 13 1pts Suppose that the labor market for low skill jobs in California is close to a competitive labor market. Many of low skill labor are from Mexico and Central America. Some politicians are considering restricting immigration from these countries. This would cause a decrease in the supply of labor leading to an increase in the equilibrium wage and an increase in the equilibrium quantity of labor employed. a decrease in the supply of labor leading to an increase...

[10 points] Suppose the market demand and market supply curves for coffee are given by the following equations where P is the price per cup of coffee and Qc is the quantity of billion cups of coffee: Market Demand for Coffee: QD = 120 – 6P Market Supply of Coffee: Qs = -10 + 20P a. [2 points) What is the equilibrium price and equilibrium of coffee given the above information? Suppose the quantity of coffee supplied at every price...
The graph above shows the market for laptop computers. Suppose
the price of memory chips used in laptop computers decreases. How
will this event impact on the equilibrium quantity and the market
price?
A. The supply decreases, causing the equilibrium
quantity to fall and the market price to rise.
B. The supply increases, causing the equilibrium
quantity to fall and the market price to rise.
C. The supply increases, causing the equilibrium
quantity to rise and the market price to...

d. Consider the market for coffee. First, wages of workers who pick coffee beans rise. At the same time, the price of brown sugar (a complement for coffee) decreases. What is the effect of these changes on the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? e....
Consider the market for labor depicted by the demand and supply curves that follow. Use the calculator to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to the calculator. Complete the following table with the quantity of labor supplied and demanded if the wage is set at $15.00. Then indicate whether this wage will result in a shortage or a surplus. Hint: Be sure to pay attention to the units used on the graph and...
