Consider the market for labor depicted by the demand and supply curves that follow. Use the calculator to help you answer the fo

vekshin1

Answer:

Suppose a senator considers introducing a bill to legislate a minimum hourly wage of $12.50.

Wage Labor Demanded Labor Supplied

$12.50 375,000 625,000

This will result in a surplus of labor (625,000 higher than 375,000)

Which of the following statements are true?

Binding minimum wages cause structural unemployment. As with all price floors, a deadweight loss results, because the quantity supplied is much greater than the quantity demanded. In this case, the price of labor is the wage, and the deadweight loss = structural unemployment
In the absence of price controls, a surplus puts downward pressure on wages until they fall to the equilibrium. Since a labor surplus exists, the price of labor should start to decrease in order to match the equilibrium price.
If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium. The quantity supplied of labor is much greater than the quantity demanded for labor resulting in a surplus.

iragen [17]

Answer:

D. the combinations of output and the interest rate where the goods market is in equilibrium.

Explanation:

The IS curve means investment-savings curve.

The IS curve is the combinations of output and the interest rate where the goods market is in equilibrium.

It is a curve which shows the different combinations of income (Y) and the real interest rate (r) such that the market for goods and services is in equilibrium.

This means that, every point on the IS curve is an income/real interest rate pair (Y,r) such that the demand for goods is equal to the supply of goods(Qs=Qd) or equivalently, the desired national saving is equal to desired investment.
