2. Briefly explain the definition on the "price of leisure" in the household choice in the input market. Explain two types of labor supply curves (i) substitute effect dominate and (ii) income effect dominate.
5. Suppose that due to a strong caution from the American Dental Association, the demand for caramel apples falls (causing a reduction in caramel apple prices). What will be the effect of this demand change on Value Marginal Product ('VMP') of Labor, and the quantity of caramel apple workers employed. a. The VMP of labor will shift upward, so the number of apple workers will fall. b. The VMP of labor will shift downward, so the number of apple workers will fall. c. The VMP of labor will shift upward, so the number of apple workers will increase. d. The VMP of labor will shift downward, so the number of apple workers will increase.
1. Suppose there is an increase in hourly wages. Describe how this change could affect labor supply responses at (i) the extensive margin and (ii) the intensive margin. Note: Try to be as comprehensive as possible with your explanation. Hint: In your explanation, utilize concepts such as "substitution effect" and "income effect." Furthermore, describe how your explanation would depend on whether leisure is assumed to be a normal good versus an inferior good.
(2) Production. (a) What is diminishing marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS)? Show this graphically and mathematically. (b) What is the difference between diminishing marginal rate of substitution (MRS) and diminishing MRTS?
please sir solve these 3 questions 33- If an increase in the price of one good leads to a fall in the quantity demanded of other than these goods are complementry good A- True B- False 34- the production function is a purely technical relationship between input and output A- True B- False 35- marginal proudact is defined as the change in TP resulting from the employment of an additional unit of a varibal factor: A- True B- False
3. A firm's marginal rate of technical substitution captures the firm's willingness to trade capital for labour, but not the degree to which capital and labour are substitutes in the production process. Answer true or false and provide reasons for your choice.
What is the best example of a marginal change? After graduating from university, Neville's income increases from $1000 per month to $1,100 per month. Jadelyn completes the six-month probationary period at her job and is now paid $11.25 per hour instead of $11.00. Housing prices in an area increase by 50% when a new freeway is built in a small town. O A hard freeze wipes out half of the potato crop in Prince Edward Island and the price of potatoes doubles.
Economics: Labor Economics Question: 1 If unskilled labor and robotics are substitutes in production a decrease in the price of robotics is predicted to a. decrease the demand for unskilled labor if the scale effect outweighs the substitution effect. b. decrease the demand for unskilled labor if the substitution effect outweighs the scale effect. c. unambiguously increase the demand for unskilled labor. d. unambiguously decrease the demand for unskilled labor. Question: 2 Assuming capital is fixed in the short run and variable in the long run what would likely happen to wages in the short and long run following a wave of immigration? a. a large decrease in the short run, followed by a smaller decrease in the long run b. a small decrease in the short run followed by a larger decrease in the long run c. an increase in the short run followed by a large decrease in the long run d. a decrease in the short run followed by an increase in the long run Question: 3 Which of the following…
The weekly revenue from the sale of a product is increasing at a rate of \$10$10 per \$1$1 increase in price, and the price is decreasing at a rate of \$0.5$0.5 per additional product sold. What is the marginal weekly revenue with respect to the number of products sold? Interpret your answer and be sure to state the units.
No chatgpt. Considering demand for inputs, does the relative slope of the ordinary demand for an input and the conditional demand for the same input depend on whether the input in question is a normal or an inferior input? Discuss. Should I include any mathematics expressions and diagrams for a good answer?
7. Consider a competitive labor market where the market demand and the market supply are given initially by QD = 1000 – 50P and Q$ = 50P, respectively. The quantity of labor is measured in number of people (assume that people are perfectly divisible) and prices are measured in RMB. (a) Suppose there is a recession and the demand for labor is reduced by 200 workers at every price level. Find the number of people who are unem- ployed as a result. (b) Suppose the government wants to help the newly unemployed by paying them 50% of the pre-recession equilibrium wage. What would be the total cost of this program to the government? How does the program affect the post-recession aggregate surplus? Is there a deadweight loss associated with this program? (c) Suppose the government wants to reduce unemployment, so it is consid- ering using the money that would have been spent on the unemployment benefit program on a wage subsidy program instead. In particular, the government will reimburse the…
