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.

Answer:
$15.64
Explanation:
first we must determine the market value of the bond without the warrants:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)⁵⁰ = $179.05
PV of coupon payments = $25 x 23.45562 (PV annuity factor, 3.5%, 50 periods) = $586.39
market value = $765.44
the market value of the 15 warrants = $1,000 - $765.44 = $234.56
market value per warrant = $234.56 / 15 = $15.64
There are four types of market structures namely; perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition and oligopoly. Perfect competition is where large number of small firms compete with each other with a homogeneous product. In a monopoly market there is only one producer of a given product who determines the price of the product. In monopolistic competition the market combines the aspect of monopoly and perfect competition. In this case, In Oligopoly there are a few suppliers or sellers of a particular product.
