1. In a competitive labor market, demand for workers is QD = 10,000 - 100W, and supply is QS = 2,000 + 1,900W, where Q is the quantity of workers employed and W is the hourly wage. What is the initial equilibrium wage and employment level? Suppose that the government decides that $5 per hour is the minimum allowable wage in any market. How would this new minimum wage alter this market? What would the new employment level be? What would happen to total payments to labor? Would there be any excess supply of labor? If so, how much?
