Hello! I just wanted someone to look over my answers for these labor economics questions, and possibly help with the questions that do not have answers/are starred. Thank you!

\fShort-Run Labor Demand 1. Paddy's Pub produces hand-crafted wooden chairs in the perfectly competitive market for hand- crafted wooden chairs using woodshops (5) at rental rate $200 and labor (E) at wage rate $10 according to the production function /(5, E) = 553/El/. Suppose that Paddy's Pub currently has four woodshops, and the market price of a hand-crafted wooden chair is $125. The markets for labor and woodshops are also competitive. Note: When necessary, round to two decimals. (a) What is the (approximate) marginal product of the 10th unit of labor? Explain the meaning [2 pts] of this number. Hp. (4)= .6287 . .63 units, 10*h labor gnit increases by .43 units (b) What is the (approximate) value of the marginal product of the 10% unit of labor? Explain [2 pts] the meaning of this number.

[4 pts] The equation for the marginal product of labor is given by MPS = ()3/4. Label this number E;. (Note: In this example, the number of woodshops is fixed in the short-run). 14/4) /4 10.

Assuming we're still in the short-run, how [2 pts] many hours of labor should Paddy's Pub employ at the new higher wage rate? Label this number Bj. w = 1 12. (125) 5 (8)38 -B/4 /4 (125) 15 132.53 .
