Figure 2 represents the Texas labor market. In this simplified model, labor and capital are the only factors of production. The initial supply of labor is denoted by S0 and consists entirely of U.S. workers. The demand for labor is denoted by D. Quantity of workers are in thousands and the wage rate is for a 40-hour workweek. (a) At labor market equilibrium, what is total weekly labor income? (b) At labor market equilibrium, what is the weekly income earned by U.S. capital owners? (Note: the capital owners are on the demand side – the demand curve reflects their demand for labor -- so the consumer surplus is the capital owner’s income.) Mexican labor migration yields a new labor supply curve, S1, which is the combination of domestic labor supply and Mexican labor. Given this: (c) What is total weekly labor income?(d) What is the weekly income earned by U.S. capital owners?

Short answer question. Discuss how a firm’s demand for labor and the wage rate might change if the market were to become imperfect.
In a market economy, the compensation of labour is determined by the interaction of demand and supply in each labour market, relative compensation by the interaction of relative demand and supply.

Do you agree this statement if so Why?
