10. The figure below indicates the production functions and indifference curves in a job market signaling game. The worker has two type, High and Low ability. The receiver is a perfectly competitive market whose profits are driven to zero in equilibrium. Denote the education level choices by the High type by en and the Low type by er. Let e (L) and e* (H) be the equilibrium levels of education chosen by the Low type and the High type, respectively, in the full information case.

- Question 13 Consider a market in which there are two types of workers L and H. Each type of worker has a different level of productivity, but that productivity is unobservable ex ante to potential employers. Before seeking employment at a firm in the market, all workers can (if they choose) get some level of education e. This choice of education e is observable to all, including potential employers. Assume that the market is competitive, so expected profits must be zero in equilibrium. The L-type workers have a productivity of 2 if they work for a firm in the market. They also have an outside option of 2. The utility function of the L-type workers UL - wL- eL, where wl is the wage received and eL is the level of education they obtain. The H type worker has an outside option of 2 and a productivity of 4 if they are employed by a firm in the market. The utility function for a H-type worker is UH=wH - (%)eH, where wH is the wage paid to a H-type and eH is the education they choose to get.…a. Draw the wage-schooling locus for someone for whom the returns to schooling decrease through college but increase after college. (Assume college is completed after 16 years of schooling and that one can receive at most 6 years of postcollege schooling.) b. On a new graph, plot the marginal rate of return to schooling implied by the wage-schooling locus described in part a. c. What can be said about a college graduate who faces the wage-schooling locus described in part a?QUESTION (5) Job market signaling game: First, Nature chooses the type of the worker to be either the high productivity type, H , or the low productivity type, L. The worker observes his type but the employer does not observe the worker's type. The worker, after learning his own type, decides whether to get education high level of education, e, , or low level of education, e. The cost of the education is 4 for the high type worker and 7 for the low type worker. Once the education choice is made, the employer observes this and has to decide to which position the worker should be assigned. The possible positions are either a manager, manager , or a clerk, clerk . The wage of a manager is 10 and that of a clerk is 4. If the high type worker is assigned as a manager profit of 10. However, if the low type worker becomes a manager, the profit for the firm will be zero. Both types of workers will be able to equally contribute at the clerical position by 4. (a) Draw the extensive form…
- 3. In a competitive economy with many firms there are two types of workers that look ex ante identical. Low productive workers (type Ls) have an outside option of 0 (dollar or util), a utility function of "=w₁-2e,, where , is utility, w, is the wage received and e, is the education obtained. An L-type worker has a productivity of O. A high-type worker (H-type) has an outside option of 0, a utility function of w-e, where is utility, w, is the wage received and e the level of education obtained. An H-type worker has a productivity of 2. For the firms the workers look identical. However, firms can observe the level of education a worker has obtained. The timing of the game is as follows: workers decide how much education to receive; firms then observe the level of education of a worker and make a wage offer; worker can accept the offer (and work for the firm) or reject the offer and receive their outside option. a. What are the incentive compatibility constraints for the L-type worker and…Question 8 Brightly colored emergency vehicles use this to get people's attention: O perspective O motion O perceptual set O vividness O none of these Question 9 Hertzberg's two factors in his theory of motivation are caled: Motivators and hygiene O Modifiers and satisfiers O Motivators and modifers O Hygiene and satishcers O All of the above Question 10 According to equity theory. O People compare their pay to that of similar employees Money is not the prime motivator-fairmess is O Money is the primary motivator O People have little knowledge of others' pay, so faimess doesn't matter O All of the above1) Consider observable effort. Assume that if the Agent does not accept the wage the Principal offers his outside option gives him a net utility of v =2. The probability of high profit under e=1 is %, the probability of high profit under low effort is 1/4. Calculate the minimum wage that the agent will accept to work and supply the asked effort when the Principal asks him to supply e=0, and e=1. Let us call these wages wo and wi. Now, assume that instead of offering him a flat wage, the Principal is offering the agent a wage schedule (, w) where the agent receives when the (gross) profit is High and w when the (gross) profit is low. Calculate all the lowest cost wage schedules the agent will accept to supply e=1, and e=D0. Does the principal's expected net profit change when he pays the minimum cost wage schedule instead of the flat wage minimum cost wage? Explain the intuition for your answer.

Assume the total number of hours available for work (h) and leisure(L) is 168 hours per week (i.e., ? = 168 = ℎ + ?). a. Draw the budget constraint for this individual. Label the endowment point. b. What is the maximum value of consumption that this individual could achieve ina week? c. In the United States, the Fair Labor Standards Act requires workers to be paid 1.5times their usual hourly wage for “overtime” work, defined as work in excess of40 hours in a week. If this law applies to the worker described above, how does itchange the budget constraint? d. Now suppose Congress passes an income tax. The income tax applies to labor andnon-labor income. The Fair Labor Standard Act is still in effect. The first $1,000in weekly income is exempt from the tax. However, every dollar above $1,000 istaxed at a rate of 10%.

- Heterogeneity in an endowment economy Suppose we have two typesof households: A and B. The utility maximization problem for a consumerof type i is max InCi,t+β ln Ci,t+1 Ct,Ct+1subject to Ci,t +Ci,t+1/ 1 + rt = Yi,t + Yi,t+1 / 1 + rt Note that the A and B households have the same discount rate and the same utility function. The only thing that is possibly different is their endowments. 1, Write down the Euler equation for households A and B.In the analysis of TANF's work incentives in Figure 13.4, the individual continues to work while receiving welfare. Reproduce the budget constraint from that figure, and sketch a set of indifference curves for an individual who would choose not to work while receiving wel- fare benefits.K Illustrate the logic of the endowment effect using a kinked indifference curve. Let the angle be greater than 90 degrees. Suppose that the prices change, so the slope of the budget line through the endowment changes Use the diagram to explain why an individual whose endowment point is at the kink will only trade from the endowment point if the price change is substantial Using the line drawing tool, graph a new budget line representing a price change such that the consumer's optimal bundle is unchanged. Label this line 1² Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required object Y quantity of good y X₂ X, quantity of good x a
