Question 1 1. (10 marks) Suppose that schooling (s) is the only variable that affects earnings. The following equations describe the weekly salaries of tall and short workers: Wtall = 700 + 100s Wshort = 400 + 80s On average, tall workers have 15 years of schooling and short workers have 12 years of schooling. a) (4 marks) What is the short-tall wage differential in the labour market? b) (6 marks) Use the Oaxaca decomposition approach to calculate how much...

1. Sasha has finished compulsory education and is deciding what to do next. She has narrowed down her options to two alternatives. She will either become an operations analyst or a chef. Suppose that Sasha will live 2 additional periods. In the first, she gets her education. In the second, she works in the labor market. If Sasha becomes an operations analyst, she will spend $15,000 on tuition and books. She will then earn $472,000 in the second period. If...

Problem #3: Benefits of Schooling
Andrea is about to graduate high school and must decide whether she will go to college or go directly to the labor market. Her annual income will be $38, 000 with a highschool diploma, but this increases by $17, 000 with a college diploma. If she decides to go to college, she has to attend school for one period and pay $10,000. Assume that Andrea lives for 4 periods and her discount rate is 15%. 1. What is Andrea’s direct cost of attending college and her opportunity cost of doing so. 2. Will Andrea attend college? 3. Now, suppose Andrea receives a full scholarship that covers her tuition. Will her decision not to go to college change? 4. Since Andrea is receiving a full scholarship fo her undergrad degree, she is now thinking about going to graduate school. If she decides to pursue her PhD, she must go to school in the first period for her undergrad at zero cost, and attend PhD in the second period, also with zero cost. With a PhD, Andrea can make $90, 000 a year. Will Andrea pursue her PhD? (Hint: You only need to compare college and PhD payoffs.)

Use the function above to show how much output per worker can be
produced from the following amounts of capital per worker:
K/N
= {0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50}
1.) Using the multipoint curve drawing
tool,
draw a curve showing the relationship between
Y/N and K/N
by using the above function and the values for
K/N.
Assume you are given the following production function that relates output per worker to capital per worker:...

Let’s say Sam just finished high school and is deciding whether to enroll in a two-year nursing program at the local community college. The cost of the program is $10,000 per year for tuition and supplies. Because the program is so intensive, Sam cannot work if he enrolls in the program until after he graduates. Sam believes if he doesn’t enroll in the program, he’ll earn $60,000 per year. He believes that if he completes the program, he’ll earn $110,000...
