Suppose a worker’s skill is captured by his efficiency units of labor. The distribution of efficiency units in the population is such that worker 1 has one efficiency unit, worker 2 has two efficiency units, and so on. There are 100 workers in the population. In deciding whether to migrate to the United States, these workers compare their weekly earnings at home ( w0) with their potential earnings in the United States (w1).The wage-skills relationship in each of the two countries is given byw0 = 700 + 0.5sandw1 = 670 + swhere s is the number of efficiency units the worker possesses.a. Assume there are no migration costs. What is the average number of efficiency units among immigrants? Is the immigrant flow positively or negatively selected?b. Suppose it costs $10 to migrate to the United States. What is the average number of efficiency units among immigrants? Is the immigrant flow positively or negatively selected?
Assume there are two countries: South Korea and the United States. South Korea grows at 4 and the United States grows at 1. For the sake of simplicity, assume they both start from the same fictional income level, 10,000. What will the incomes of the United States and South Korea he in 20 years? By how many multiples will each countrys income grow in 20 years?
Labour Economics Question The direct cost of a training module to be taken by an employee is $5000 and the opportunity cost involved is $7000. The expected incremental earnings to be received by the employee in the first 5 years are $3000, $3500, $4000, $4500 and $5000, respectively. Assuming the interest rate is 10%. Based on the concept of net present value, should the employee pursue this training module? Show all steps of calculations. Why opportunity cost not combine to same direct cost at calculated NPV?
Consider an individual aged 64 who is eligible to collect full social security (public pension) benefits of $6000 for a year. She has no other income, but can work at a weekly wage rate of $600 for a maximum of 52 weeks. Receipt of benefits from the social security program is retirement-tested. Specif- ically, the individual can earn up to $9000 in annual wage income without a reduction in benefits; how- ever, after $9000 of earnings, benefits are reduced by 50 percent for every dollar earned, until the ben- efits are exhausted. a. Carefully draw and label the budget constraint for this individual. b. Consider an individual whose labour supply decision is such that she receives YA in social security benefits, so that 0 , YA , $6000 (i.e., she receives positive but reduced benefits). On the carefully labelled diagram from part (a), show her labour supply decision. c. “Elimination of the retirement test (i.e., allowing the individual to keep all benefits, irrespective of his or her…
Suppose Carl’s wage-schooling locus is given byYears of Schooling Earnings 9 $18,500 10 $20,350 11 $22,000 12 $23,100 13 $23,900 14 $24,000Derive the marginal rate of return schedule. When will Carl quit school if his discount rate is 4 percent? What if the discount rate is 12 percent?
B. Evaluate figure 23.2 below. What does this graph tell us about the relationship between income and fertility? Give four probable reasons for this trend.
(a) Prove Proposition 20.4. In particular, show that if (20.18) is not satisfied, a CGP cannot exist, and that this condition is sufficient for a unique CGP to exist. (b) Characterize the CGP effective capital-labor ratio k∗. Proposition 20.4 Suppose (20.13) holds. Then in the above-described economy a (unique) CGP exists if and only if
Suppose that the returns to education are 13.4% per year for the first four years of schooling (grades 1–4), 10.1% per year for the next four years (grades 5–8), and 6.8% per year for education beyond eight years. In a certain country, everyone in the labor force in the year 2000 had 12 years of education. In 1950 everyone in the labor force had 4 years of education. What was the average annual growth in income per worker that was due to the increase in education?
Name two products for which each of the threefollowing demographic variables would be mostinfluential in determining consumption. If youcould combine two of the three, which would bethe second demographic you would add to each?Justify your answer.a. Incomeb. Educationc. Occupation
TFR and Birth Rates:a. Define the crude birth-rate and the total fertility rateSuppose country A and B have are identical in their population size andstructure, and rate of mortality, but A has a higher average TFR than B.b. What could be some of the reasons why A has a higher fertility ratethan B?c. What will be true about the size and age structure of the population in Arelative to B in 25 years? Will the proportion of young people to oldpeople be higher or lower in A?d. Now suppose the governments of both A and B impose a one-child policy(the TFR was greater than 1 in both A and B). Suppose the policy is fullyenforced (i.e. all families indeed have one kid). Is the fertility rate thesame in A and B? Is the birth rate same in A and B?e. Is the population growth rate higher or lower in A?f. As more time passes, the population growth will eventually slow down inboth countries. What will happen to the proportion of old in the populationas population growth slows down?
Suppose Fred's wage-schooling relationship is given by Years of Schooling Earnings 9 $28,000 10 $31,150 11 $33,700 12 $35,900 13 $37,400 14 $38,500 Derive the marginal rate of return schedule. When will Fred quit school if his discount rate is 5 percent? What if the discount rate is 10 percent?
“Intergenerational equity” is the idea of fairness between the generations. Covid-19 has been called a health crisis for the older generation but an economic crisis for the younger generation. Younger employees are emptying their superannuation accounts and losing their jobs at a faster rate than older employees who are more established in the workforce and are likely to have more savings. Australian Government debt is likely to rise from about 52% of GDP in 2018 to 80% of GDP in the current financial year. The State and Federal Governments in Australia are spending around $200 Billion to support the Australian economy, much of this is borrowed money. In the light of the Covid-19 situation discuss both positive and negative economic impacts on the younger and older generations, including: a. the burden of debt on current and future generations, b. the likely employment prospects for workers, c. the government’s ability to collect taxes and engage in government…
