We can produce widgets with two inputs – labour and capital. The two inputs are perfect substitutes. Current technology methods allow one machine to do the work of three labourers. The widget factory wishes to produce one hundred units of output. The price of capital is $750 per machine per week. What combination of inputs will the firm use if the weekly salary of each worker is $300? What combination of inputs will the firm use if the weekly salary of each worker is $225?

Labor Force Participation Rate analysis

The labor force participation rate analysis calculates the percentage of the working-age population either employed or actively seeking work. It can be anyone in the age category of 16 to 64, on the condition that they are not institutionalized. A high labor force participation rate shows that more people are employed and contributing their wages to the economy, making it a healthy economy. It also shows that there are more people actively looking for employment leading to more hiring options for employers. On the other hand, a low labor force participation rate shows a low number of people employed or looking for work. This leads to an economic setback with fewer wages going into the economy. In such a scenario, employers might have to cut back on profits, lay off employees, or stop the process of hiring.
