@jim_thompson5910

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

i need help with like 5 more please if you could just try :D

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

complements move together. Think of hamburgers and hamburger buns. If one is demanded more, then so is the other. It wouldn't make sense to demand more hamburgers but keep the demand of buns the same.

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

so it would increase!? @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

more economists need more software to be able to do their job

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you don't sum vertically

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

keep in mind that demand is along the x axis

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

oh so it would be D??

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

horizontal, demand??

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

correct

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

is this one correct too?? please... i only have a couple more but need the help:-), please @jim_thompson5910

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

is what i picked right??^

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hmm not sure about this one. I guess if tech gets better, then you don't need that many workers so it makes sense though at the same time, if you have better tech then the company is encouraged to produce more which means more workers are needed so like I said, I'm not sure

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

ok what about this??

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

@jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

look where D1 and S1 cross

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, you're looking at the wrong spot

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

can i please ask you a few more quickly and you just stay ar round 10-15 mins tops ?? sheesh @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

sheesh?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

no i didnt mean that----

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

please, question, i am very confused by...

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

well try not to be rude please

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

i will not, sorry sir

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hmm it seems like $40,000 is well below all of the curves so it's not clear why they picked this value? It's way too low

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the lowest salary is $50,000 keep in mind that in the labor market, supply is the people supplying the work. The demand is the companies seeking workers

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

i know.. it is confusing

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

@jim_thompson5910 so what do you believe the best choice to be?/

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

how does your book define "economic rent" ?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

the extra amount earned by a resource (e.g., land, capital, or labor) by virtue of its present use.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

does it give a formula or equation?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

no

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hmm let me see if I can find something

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

does this look familiar? http://www.economicshelp.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/economic-rent1.png
