Assume a monopsony uses only one factor, labor, L, to produce a final good, Q, which it sells in a competitive market at the price, p = 1. The inverse supply curve for labor is w = 20 + 2L. If the monopsony's labor demand curve is w = 70 - L, how many units of labor does it hire and at what wage? What value does the monopsony place on the last worker hired? How does the monopsony equilibrium compare to the competitive equilibrium?
