The Republic of Yuck is a simple economy with no government, no taxes, and no imports and exports. Yuckers (citizens of Yuck) are creatures of habit. They have a rule that everyone saves exactly 22 percent of income. Assume that planned investment is fixed and remains at 67 billion Yuck dollars. Expert economists of the Republic of Yuck have estimated the following:Real GDP (Y) 192 billion Yuck dollarsPlanned Investment Spending (U): 67 billionYuck dollars You are asked by the business editor of the Weird Herald, the local newspaper, to predict the economic events of the next few months. Based on the information given above you predict that the inventories will and output will ,a. stay unchangedb increasec. decrease

Suppose a firm faces a fixed price of output, 푝푝= 1200. the firm hires workers from a union at a daily wage, 푤푤, to produce output according to the production function 푞푞= 2퐸퐸12. there are 225 workers in the union. any union worker who does not work for this firm is guaranteed to find nonunion employment at a wage of $96 per day. a. what is the firm’s labor demand function? b. if the firm is allowed to choose 푤푤, but then the union decides how many workers to provide (up to 225) at that wage, what wage will the firm set? how many workers will the union provide? what is the firm’s output and profit? what is the total income of the 225 union workers? c. now suppose that the union sets the wage, but the firm decides how many workers to hire at that wage (up to 225). what wage will the union set to maximize the total income of all 225 workers? how many workers will the firm hire? what is the firm’s output and profit? what is the total income of the 225 union workers? [hint: to maximize total income of union, take the first order condition with respect to w and set equal to 0.]
