Consider a simple model of the labour market, characterised by a downward-sloping labour demand curve and an upward-sloping wage-setting curve in theN − W/P - plane, where N is the number of employed workers and W/P the real wage. Labour demand is a linear function of N and given byW/P = 140 − 0.5N.Wage setting is given byW/P = 44 + 0.5N.A. Suppose that the labour force, L, comprises 100 workers. Illustrate the equilibrium in a diagram and compute employment,...

If implemented, this law would require employers in the market to pay workers a $5 hourly wage. Suppose all workers in the market are equally productive, the current market clearing wage is $4 per hour., and that at this market- clearing wage there are 600 employed workers. Further suppose that under the minimum...
