The demand for labor in Occupation A is LD = 20-W, where LD = number of workers demanded for that occupation, in thousands. The supply of labor for Occupation A is LA = -1.25 +.5W. For Occupation B, the demand for labor is similar, but the supply of labor is LB = -.5+.6W, which is indicative of a more pleasant environment associated with that occupation in comparison with Occupation A. What is the compensating wage differential between the two occupations?...

Two companies, West Timber and Musk Logging, are both activity in the lumber industry. The lumber industry involves some amount of danger for workers, and the two companies face different isoprofit curves with respect to the trade-off between wages and risk. Since the logging industry is competitive, both companies operate at 0 profit. West Timber has a zero-profit isoprofit curve of w = 4+.5R, wherew is the wage offered by West Timber at level of risk R. Likewise, the zero-profit...
The demand for labor in both Occupations A and B is L_D = 15 - 2W,...
The demand for labor in both Occupations A and B is L_D = 15 - 2W, where L_D is the number of workers demanded for that occupation, in thousands, at wage rate W. The supply of labor for Occupation A is L_A = -4 + W and for Occupation B is L_B = -2 + (1.2)W. What is the compensating wage differential between the two occupations?

Suppose in a particular labor market, the demand for labor is given by the equation LD = 120 – 3W and that the labor supply in this market for native-born citizens is given by LN = 3W, while the supply curve of immigrants in this market is given by LI = 2W, where L represents the number of workers, W is the wage expressed in real terms.

3. The demand and supply functions for labor are as follows: Supply: L0.5w where Ld is the number of workers demanded by firms, L' is the number of workers supplied by households, and w is the wage per worker (i.e. the price of labor). Solve for the equilibrium wage and the equilibrium number of workers. Illustrate this equilibrium in a graph with w on the vertical axis and L on the horizontal axis. a. b. Suppose the government sets a...
Suppose the demand for fast food workers can be defined a labor demand equation of LD...
Suppose the demand for fast food workers can be defined a labor demand equation of LD = 95-3w. All fast food workers are covered by the minimum wage and it is binding. The minimum wage is increased from $7.25 to $9.00 per hour. Calculate the elasticity of demand for fast food workers over the relevant portion of the demand curve using the simple formula. Throughout your calculations round to two decimals.
