Evaluate the wage paid and the number of labor hours


Assume that one firm is the only employer of a certain labor service. Suppose its MRPL is given by the L = 11 - w and the labor supply is L = w.

1. Evaluate the wage paid and the number of labor hours hired by the profit-maximizing monopolist?

2. Discuss what would be the wage and the number of labor hours if the labor market were completely competitive?

3. If a minimum wage law is passed that needs the monopolist to pay at least $5.50 per hour, discuss how will these affect employments?
