Suppose a single parent can work up to 16 hours per day at a wage rate of$10 per hour. Various income maintenance programs have been developed to assurea minimum level of income for low-income families. Aid to Families withDependent Children (AFDC) was established with the Social SecurityAct of 1935. The family was given an income subsidy depending on family size. Under this program, the family’s benefi t was reduced by $1 forevery dollar earned. Suppose the maximum daily subsidy for the singleparent described in this problem is $40.a. Draw the daily budget constraint without program participation forthe single parent described in this problem.b. On the same graph, draw the daily budget constraint under AFDC forthe single parent described in this problem.c. What effect does this program have on the incentive to work? Explain.
The Government had implemented minimum wage of RM1,200.00 in 57 cities and towns effective 1 January 2020. a) Describe how the new wage will benefit employees in the urban areas
calculate the social security and medicare deductions for the following employee (assume a tax rate of 6.2% on $128,400 for social security and 1.45% for medicare): (leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. round your answers to the nearest cent.): Employee: Brian Cumulative earnings before this pay period: 399,700 Pay amount this period: 7,500 Social security this period: ??

This question concerns rent subsidies. Suppose that under a rent subsidy the government will pay some specified proportion of the total rental price. Using an indifference map for "housing" (e.g. rooms of standard quality) and "all other commodities" analyze whether this approach to enhancing domestic welfare is more or less effective than granting income tax reductions equal in dollar amount to the amount of the rent subsidy? How do these compare to a lump sum $250 per month subsidy which must be applied toward rent or it is taken away?
The equation of demand is Q=10000-5p, supply is Q=-2000+10p Q represents the quantity of houses on the market and P the rental price. The equilibriumrental price equals 800 euros per month. If the government gives people a housing allowance of 300 euros per month，What are the effects of each measure for both house owners and people renting ahouse? And what are the consequences for the government? Analyse the measuresgraphically and mathematically.
Rubber for erasers is produced in the market. There are equations for the Supply and Inverse Demand of eraser rubber that model its Supply and Demand graph. These equations are (for supply), P = 20 + Qs, and (for Inverse Demand), P = 80 - Qd. With that said, the government realizes that it is not turning out enough revenue from the market. As a result, it places a per-unit sales tax of $10. (Part I) Draw the market equilibrium with the government intervention (Q**, PD**, and PS**) of the sales tax. Please label the graph for slopes, equilibrium points, sales tax, etc. (Part II) What is the market equilibrium without the intervention of the government? (Part III) The government once again realizes that the previous tax was not sufficient, and the government is still not making enough money. So, it increases the sales from $10 to $20. Consequently, what is the new market equilibrium point (Q**, PD**, and PS**) with this new intervention? It is not necessary to label this point on the…
Asap Jennifer has earnings of $2,400 and faces a constant marginal tax rate of t= 0.3. If she is caught not reporting some of her income (where U is the amount of income she doesn't declare), then her marginal penalty is U/1000. There is a 20% chance she will be caught. How much income will she optimally declare? Show on a diagram.
Please calculate the total cost of providing a 50% subsidy on purchases of fruit and vegetables at farmers markets by SNAP participants. Assume that you are estimating it for the state of Connecticut with 350,000 SNAP participants. The season for farmers markets and the use of subsidies is 5 months (May-September); subsidies can only be used during this period. Based on prior studies, you know that a typical SNAP participant that attends farmers markets will purchase on average 3 lb of fruit and 2 lb of vegetables per month. Average price for vegetables is $1.5 per lb and the price elasticity of demand for vegetables among SNAP participants is -0.6. Similarly, fruit cost on average $2.5 per lb and the demand elasticity for fruit is -0.8. How much should the state of Connecticut expect to pay in total subsidies each season if only 20% of SNAP participants will attend farmers markets?
The market for low-skilled workers is highly competitive, due to the high numbers of low skilled individuals. If the labor supply is given by the equation QS = 10W and measured per hour, and the demand for labor is given by the equation QD = 240 − 20W. Where Q measures the quantity of labor hired (in thousands of hours). Answer the following: (d) After the implementation of the $9 minimum wage, in terms of surplus how much better off are low-skilled workers and how much worse off are employers? (e) If the minimum wage is set at $11 rather than $9 how does the deadweight loss and surplus change?
The way the workers’ compensation system works now, employees permanently injured on the jobreceive a payment of $X each year whether they work or not. Suppose the government were toimplement a new program in which those who did not work at all got $0.5X but those who did work got$0.5X plus workers’ compensation of 50 cents for every hour worked (of course, this subsidy would bein addition to the wages paid by their employers). What would be the change in work incentivesassociated with this change in the way workers’ compensation payments are calculated?

Since the early 1970’s, the U.S. government has had a program called the Earned Income Tax Credit. A simplified version of this program works as follows: The government subsidizes your wages by paying you 50% in addition to what your employer paid you but the subsidy applies only to the first $60 (per day) you receive from your employer. If you earn more than $60 per day, the government gives you only the subsidy for the first $60 earned but nothing for anything additional you earn. For instance, if you earn $100 per day, the government would give you 50% of the first $60 you earned — or $30. Suppose you consider workers 1 and 2. Both can work up to 10 hours per day at a wage of $10 per hour, and after the policy is put in place you observe that worker 1 works 7 hours per day while worker 2 works 5 hours per day. Assume throughout that Leisure is a normal good. (a) Illustrate these workers’ budget constraints with and without the program. (b) Can you tell whether the program has…
