Isabelle is working on her real estate analysis project. She is gathering data that would help her figure out trends in demand and supply in the residential housing sector in La Verne. She calculated the Location Quotient for various employment categories, as shown in the table below:

Question 52 Which of the following does not cause the labor demand curve to shift? Group of answer choices Changes in the wage rate Changes in the price of the firm’s good or service Increases in technology Increases in the firm’s capital

Suppose that education is the only factor that affects productivity and that an additional year of education raises wages by 2%.   Suppose in 2011 gender wage gap was 13%, and the average man had 15 years of education while the average women had 14 years of schooling.  a) Using the wage gap decomposition technique, calculate how much of the 13% wage differential is due to discrimination? b) Now suppose in 2021 the gender wage gap is 10%, but the average woman’s education level is increased to 17 year and the average man’s education increases to16 years. (Assume that the return to education stays same at 2%), Was there a decrease or an increase in wage discrimination in the decade?  Why?

Sam was offered a new job that pays 20% more than his current job. He decided to reject the offer because he prefers the convenience of working from home in his current job. This is an example of:     Compensating Wage Differentials     Occupational Wage Structure     Equalizing Differences     Personal Characteristics      Union Regulations

How would I analyze how the equilibrium wage and number of working hours will change when a company has a great demand for workers (i.e. grocery stores now) yet some current workers don't want to work as many hours? How would I explain the three cases that would depend on the relative size of change in labor demand and labor supply? For example. Case 1. Change in supply(∆LS)| = |Change in Demand(∆LD )| .  Case 2: |∆LS| > |∆LD| .  Case 3: |∆LS| < |∆LD|    I'm trying to understand how the equilibrium wage and number of working hours will change under these different scenarios. Thanks
