Consider a small island country whose only industry is fishing. The following table presents information about this small economy in two different years. Complete the table by calculating physical capital per worker and labor productivity. Hint: Recall that productivity is defined as the amount of goods and services a worker can produce per hour. In this problem, measure productivity as the quantity of goods per hour of labor. Year Physical Capital Labor Force Physical Capital per Worker Labor Hours Output Labor Productivity (Fishing poles) (Workers) (Fishing poles) (Hours) (Fish) 2027 120 60 1x 3,000 21,000 3x 2028 400 100 2x 3,500 49,000 4x Based on your calculations, (an increase/a decrease) in physical capital per worker from 2027 to 2028 is associated with (an increase/a decrease) in labor productivity from 2027 to 2028.
