For questions 7- 10: Suppose a worker's skill-is captured by his efficiency units of labor (s). The distribution of efficiency. units in the population is such that worker i has efficiency unit 2i. There are 100 workers in the population. In deciding whether to migrate to the Utopia, these workers compare their weekly earnings at home (wo) with their potential earnings in the Utopia (wi). The wage-skills relationship in each of the two countries is given by: wo=200+s and wi=260+0.5se 7. For worker with rank:50, his/her skill-is- A. 10 unitse C. 100 units B. 20 unitse D. 200 unitse 8. If there is no migration cost, at most, A. 60; positively selectede C. 40; positively selectede workers will migrate to Utopia. The immigrant flow is B. 60; negatively selectede D. 40; negatively selected 9. For this question only, "suppose it-costs $10-to migrate. At most, flow is: A. 40; negatively selectede C. 50; negatively selectede workers will-migrate to Utopia. The immigrant- B. 40; positively selectede D. 50; positively selected
