consider a labor market experiment involving four buyers (firms) and four sellers (workers). Each firm seeks to hire a single worker and each worker can work for a single firm. Each firm has a maximum revenue they can earn per worker hired. Each worker has a cost of working, which represents the value of his or her leisure time. Suppose the revenues from hiring a worker are $23, $15 and $21 and $17 for firms 1, 2, 3 and 4,...
