11. Calculating the price elasticity of supply Dina is a stay-at-home parent who lives in Denver and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $25 per hour, she is willing to work 6 hours per week. At $35 per hour, she is willing to work 16 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Dina's labor supply between the wages of $25 and $35 per hour is approximately that Dina's supply of labor over this wage range is which means

Q5 Those working for Amazon have been trying to form a union. Suppose that these workers are successful in forming a union and call themselves the Amazon Delivery Workers. Assume the union successfully negotiated a 14 percent wage increase and the result was that the quantity of labour demanded decreased by 10 percent. Given a fixed labour demand curve, we can conclude that Multiple Choice labour demand is inelastic. the coefficient of elasticity of labour demand is equal to 1. labour demand is elastic. the labour demand curve is upsloping. economies of scale has been achieved.

Ann owns a lawn-mowing company. She has 400 lawns she needs to cut each week. Her weekly revenue from these 400 lawns is $20,000. Given an 18-inch-deck push mower, a laborer can cut each lawn in two hours. Given a 60-inch-deck riding mower, a laborer can cut each lawn in 30 minutes. Labor is supplied inelastically at $5.00 per hour. Each laborer works eight hours a day and five days each week.a. If Ann decides to have her workers use push mowers, how many push mowers will Ann rent and how many workers will she hire?b. If she decides to have her workers use riding mowers, how many riding mowers will Ann rent and how many workers will she hire?c.
