- 1. According to part A of Table 5-1, what education level loses most (i.e., has the greatest decrease in wage) from immigration to the United States? Does this result depend on keeping the rental on capital constant? Explain why or why not. 2. Suppose that computers use 2 units of capital for each worker, so that KC = 2 • LC, whereas shoes use 0.5 unit of capital for each worker, so that KS = 0.5 • LS. There are 100 workers and 100 units of capital in the economy. a. Solve for the amount of labor and capital used in each industry. Hint: The box diagram shown in Figure 5-7 means that the amount of labor and capital used in each industry must add up to the total for the economy, so that Use these two equations to solve for LC and LS, and then calculate the amount of capital used in each industry using KC = 2 • LC and KS = 0.5 • LS. b. Suppose that the number of workers increases to 125 due to immigration, keeping total capital fixed at 100. Again, solve…Economics 1) Draw a saving-investment diagram to show how each of the following changes shifts the IS curve. (a) Future income rises.

He expects to be able to sell the cabinet for AED 360. Mazen discovers that he needs to do an additional AED 200 of work to make the cabinet worth AED 360 to potential buyers. He could also sell the cabinet now, without completing the additional work, for AED 100. What should he do? A. It does not matter which action he takes since the outcome will be the same either way. OB. He should keep the cabinet since it wouldn't be rational to spend AED 380 restoring a cabinet and then sell it only for AED 360. OC. He should complete the additional work and sell the cabinet for AED 360. D. He should sell the cabinet now for AED 100.
