Labor economics: problem 5.2 Consider the demand for and supply of risky jobs : a. Derive the algebra that leads from equations (5.4) and (5.5) to equation (5.6). (5.4) π0=pα0E*- w0 E* (5.5) π1=pα1E*- w1 E* It is given that a profit-maximizing firm offers a risky environment if π1>π0 (when the profits the firm can earn when it chooses to be a risky firm exceed the profits the firm can earn when it chooses to be a safe firm) and a profit-maximizing firm offers a safe environment if π1<π0

Gulf of Mexico and the southern states wiping out refineries and drilling operations making it fewer outfits for gasoline and with the demand remaining constant gas prices soared during that time. I have noticed that during the summer time gasoline prices rises nearly due to the demand increasing around 5% due to more people traveling on vacations (increase in demand).

state – that is when; demand and supply are balanced. The below graph illustrate the state of market equilibrium by showing the demand and supply curves with the point at which they are intersect one another – at the point of intersection of the two curves is when and where market equilibrium happens.

Question 1 [10 marks] Suppose the expected market demand for tickets to the Australian Open golf tournament to be held in Queensland in November is given by D = 40,000 -1,000P and the supply of tickets is S = 20,000. Tickets for a golfing tournament have negligible Marginal cost. Hence supply will be Perfectly Elastic. This means that 20 000 tickets will be supplied regardless of demand Demand = (40,000 – 1,000 * Ticket Price) tickets Supply = (20,000 + 0*Ticket

1. If the price of a good increases, what happens to demand? The demand decreases because people are not willing to buy as much when the price rises. 2. If the price of a good decreases, what happens to supply? The supply will increase because people are now willing to buy more at a lower price. 3. Does a change in price create curve shifts? Explain. Yes because a change in price results in a change in demand and we know that demand determines the price and vice versa. Complete the

Natural gas, which is abundant in America, may very well be the answer to both. The law of demand states that as the price of the good increases the quantity demanded of the good decreases. The law of supply states that as the price of the good increases, the quantity supplied of the good increases. Energy however is one of the exceptions to both of these rules. Oil and fossil fuels have a relatively high demand worldwide yet the prices are still at all-time highs. Natural gas on the other hand is
