Overtime (hours worked per day beyond the “standard” workday) in this country is paid at 50% above the normal wage rate. Please answer the following questions related to the work incentives facing workers in this country:

a. Draw the old budget constraint (in leisure/income space), showing the overtime premium after 8 hours of work per day.

b. On your diagram in (a), draw in the new budget constraint.
