Explanation / Answer

14) d is correct

Unionised workers have higher bargaining power which allows them to get higher wages than non unionised workers.

15) d is correct

At equilibrium, real wage is equal to marginal product of labor.

Decrease in wage leads to increase in number of workers hired as marginal product of labor exceeds wage rate.

16) a is correct

Workers do not possess much skills in less developed nations which increases their supply in low skilled occupation. This puts downward pressure on wages. Also demand for low skilled workers is high in developed nations as most of the workers are skilled in developed countries.

17) c is correct

Binding minimum wage reduces demand for workers which reduces employment.

18) b is correct

Wages decreased because demand for slaves has decreased.

19) d is correct

Wages depend on skill required to do a certain job and wages depend on these skills, due to which wages differ.

20) a is correct

Marginal product of labor is an increase in revenue by hiring an additional unit of labor.
