Answer:

Wage rate = $34.16

E = 3,750

Explanation:

(a) As monopsonist’s demand for labor is written as VMPE = 40 - 0.004ED and the firm’s marginal cost of hiring workers when it hires off of this supply schedule is MCE = 5 + 0.02ES.

Now VMPE = MCE  is the point when monopsonist will be hiring labor.

Calculations:

40 - 0.004E = 5 + 0.02E  

40 - 5 = 0.02E + 0.004E

0.024E = 35

E = 35 / 0.024

E = 1,458 (approx)

Calculating Wage rate:

As the firm’s marginal cost of hiring workers when it hires off of this supply schedule is MCE = 5 + 0.02E(s)

therefore by putting the value of E(s) in the above formula, we get

Wage rate = 5 + (0.02 x 1,458)

Wage rate = 5 + 29.16

Wage rate = $34.16

(b) When it must pay a minimum wage of $25:

As monopsonist’s demand for labor is written as VMPE = 40 - 0.004ED

VMPE:

25 = 40 - 0.004E

0.004E  = 40 - 25

0.004E = 15

E = 15 / 0.004

E = 3,750

kogti [31]

Answer:

A) an employee of the firm with a degree in communications whose job is the graphic design of the investment adviser's research publications

Explanation:

In this case, the employee who performs tasks related to graphic design, but doesn't carry out any function similar to an associate partner or director of an investment adviser, is not considered a "person associated with an investment adviser". Even if that person actually worked for the investment adviser, his/her functions are considered clerical, the same as a secretary or receptionist.
