  1. How responsive is the supply of cabbage to a change in the wage rate in agriculture?
Assume the following supply function for cabbage and the mean values of the variables:
Qs = 25,000 + 120 Pc - 32 Pt - 5 Pf - 100 W + ε
Mean Values:
Qs = 1,000 kg
Pc = PhP 20/kg
KhP6/kg
Pf= Php 1,200/bag
W = Php 330/day
Pt=PhP
Where: Qs = quantity supplied of cabbage (kg), Pc = farmgate price of cabbage (PhP/kg), Pt =
farmgate price of tomato (PhP/kg), Pf= dealer's price of complete fertilizer (Php/bag), W = wage
rate in agriculture (PhP/day), and & = error term.
