Using the WS-PS model, graphically explain the effects of a reduction in the markup on the equilibrium real wage, the natural rate of unemployment, the natural level of employment, and the natural level of output. Answer: A reduction in the markup will cause firms to [Select] the price given the nominal wage This will cause the real wage based on the price setting behavior to [Select] ; this is represented by a(n) [Select] shift in the [Select] curve. As a...

1. Based on price setting behavior, we know that a reduction in the unemployment rate will cause no change in the real wage. a reduction in the real wage. an upward shift of the PS curve. an increase in the real wage.

3. Use the Wage-Setting (WS) and Price-Setting (PS) relations to examine the effects of the following events on the natural rate of unemployment, real wage, level of employment, and output. a. reduction in employment insurance. b. less stringent competition law. c. increase in the minimum wage.

Question 3: (45 marks] Suppose the price-setting equation is given by P= (1+mW where m is the markup. The wage-setting equation is given by W = pe? where z are unemployment benefts and u is the unemployment rate. 1. Derive the real wage and unemployment consistent with equilibrium in the labor market in the medium run. Is this the natural rate of unemployment? Does the equilibrium rate of unemployment change if unemployment benefts decrease? Explain? (8 marks] 2. Draw the...

(14p) COUNTRY A: Utilizing the results that you have obtained from wage-setting/price-setting labor market relationships use IS/LM/PC relationship and graphs and show the effects of the rise in oil prices and subsequent labor market policy changes on the economy of Country A. In your answer, explain the changes in the unemployment rate, real wages, price level, and output: i. immediately after the oil price shock; and ii. after the labor market policy change, i.e. the final medium-run equilibrium.

Suppose that the price-setting equation also takes into account the price of energy (another input in production). In particular, P= (1 + m)Wql-a where q is the price of one unit of energy. The wage-setting equation is given by W = pe? 4. Derive the real wage and unemployment consistent with equilibrium in the labor market in the medium run. How does the equilibrium unemployment rate change when the price of energy decreases? What is the intuition for this result?...
