n Figure 6.4 depicted Maria's best response curve when the expected duration of unemployment was 44 weeks. Which of the following statements is correct? 1 Effort per hour 0.8 0.5 0 06 Select one or more: Slope = MRT Reservation wage 12 Feasible set 24 Hourly wage ($) Maximum possible effort Worker's best response curve when expected unemployment duration is 44 weeks If the expected unemployment duration increased to 50 weeks, Maria's best response to a wage of $12 would be an effort level above 0.5. O b. If the unemployment benefit was reduced, then Maria's reservation wage would be higher than $6. O c. Over the range of wages shown in the figure, Maria would never exert the maximum possible effort per hour. Od. Increasing effort from 0.5 to 0.6 requires a bigger wage increase than increasing effort from 0.8 to 0.9.

Suppose the existing labor force inside the country is 1,000,000 persons, of whom 900,000 are employed and 100,000 unemployed. Suddenly 100,000 overseas workers are thrown out of their jobs overseas and must return home. Of these, 95,000 become employed while 5,000 have difficulty finding jobs and are unemployed. As a result of this development, the unemployment rate of the country from to O a. rises; 11 percent; 11.6 percent O b. falls; 10 percent; 9.5 percent O c. rises; 10 percent; 11 percent O d. falls; 11 percent; 10 percent

Look at this graph of real wage index in England between 1260 and 1800. Consider also that, in the bubonic plague of 1348 and 1351, between one quarter and one third of Europe's population died. 800 700 Bubonic plague Statute of 600 Labourers s00 400 140 300 200 100 1260 1348 1800 2000 80 60 40 Peasants rebellion Kett's rebellion Glorious Revolution 20 1260 1320 1380 1440 1500 1560 1620 1680 1740 1800 Select one or more: a. According to the Malthusian model, the fall in the population due to the bubonic plague would have led to an increase in the average productivity of workers, causing the observed rise in the real wage post-plague. b. The doubling and halving of the real wage index over 250 years from around 1350 cannot be explained by the Malthusian model. c. The fall in the unskilled workers' share of total output in the 17th and 18th centuries was due to the fall in their average product of labour. d. In the Malthusian model, the rise in real wages from 1800 onwards, at the same…

Suppose the unemployment rate increases. If at the same time we observe the labor force participation rate decreasing, we can conclude that The labor force participation rate is falling for a bad reason O The unemployment rate is increasing for a bad reason O The unemployment rate is increasing for a good reason O The labor force participation rate is falling for a good reason
