  1. BAB 12 PASAR INPUT nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  2. Topics to be Discussed • Competitive Factor Markets • Equilibrium in a Competitive Factor Market • Factor Markets with Monopsony Power • Factor Markets with Monopoly Power nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  3. Competitive Factor Markets • Characteristics 1) Large number of sellers of the factor of production 2) Large number of buyers of the factor of production 3) The buyers and sellers of the factor of production are price takers nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  4. Competitive Factor Markets • Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • Demand for factor inputs is a derived demand… • derived from factor cost and output demand nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  5. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable Assume • Two inputs: Capital (K) and Labor (L) • Cost of K is r and the cost of labor is w • K is fixed and L is variable nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  6. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • Problem • How much labor to hire nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  7. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • Measuring the Value of a Worker’s Output • Marginal Revenue Product of Labor (MRPL) • MRPL = (MPL)(MR) nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  8. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • Assume perfect competition in the product market • Then MR = P nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  9. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • Question • What will happen to the value of MRPL when more workers are hired? nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  10. Competitive Output Market (P = MR) MRPL = MPLxP Monopolistic Output Market (P < MR) MRPL = MPL x MR Marginal Revenue Product Wages ($ per hour) Hours of Work nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  11. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • Choosing the profit-maximizing amount of labor • If MRPL > w (the marginal cost of hiring a worker): hire the worker • If MRPL < w: hire less labor • If MRPL = w: profit maximizing amount of labor nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  12. In a competitive labor market, a firm faces a perfectly elastic supply of labor and can hire as many workers as it wants at w*. The profit maximizing firm will hire L* units of labor at the point where the marginal revenue product of labor is equal to the wage rate. w* SL MRPL = DL L* Hiring by a Firm in theLabor Market (with Capital Fixed) Price of Labor Why not hire fewer or more workers than L*. Quantity of Labor nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  13. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Only One Input Is Variable • If the market supply of labor increased relative to demand (baby boomers or female entry), a surplus of labor would exist and the wage rate would fall. • Question • How would this impact the quantity demanded for labor? nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  14. S1 w1 w2 S2 MRPL = DL L1 L2 A Shift in the Supply of Labor Price of Labor Quantity of Labor nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  15. Competitive Factor Markets • Comparing Input and Output Markets nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  16. Competitive Factor Markets • Comparing Input and Output Markets • In both markets, input and output choices occur where MR = MC • MR from the sale of the output • MC from the purchase of the input nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  17. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Several Inputs Are Variable • Scenario • Producing farm equipment with two variable inputs: • Labor • Assembly-line machinery • Assume the wage rate falls nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  18. Competitive Factor Markets Demand for a Factor Input When Several Inputs Are Variable • Question • How will the decrease in the wage rate impact the demand for labor? nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  19. When two or more inputs are variable, a firm’s demand for one input depends on the marginal revenue product of both inputs. When the wage rate is $20, A represents one point on the firm’s demand for labor curve. When the wage rate falls to $15, the MRP curve shifts, generating a new point C on the firm’s demand for labor curve. Thus A and C are on the demand for labor curve, but B is not.

  20. Competitive Factor Markets Industry Demand for Labor • Assume that all firms respond to a lower wage • All firms would hire more workers. • Market supply would increase. • The market price will fall. • The quantity demanded for labor by the firm will be smaller. nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  22. The Industry Demand for Labor • Question • How would a change to a non-competitive market impact the derivation of the market demand for labor? nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  23. The Demand for Jet Fuel • Observations • Jet fuel is a factor (input) cost • Cost of jet fuel • 1971--Jet fuel cost equaled 12.4% of total operating cost • 1980--Jet fuel cost equaled 30.0% of total operating cost • 1990’s--Jet fuel cost equaled 15.0% of total operating cost nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  24. The Demand for Jet Fuel • Observations • Airlines responded to higher prices in the 1970’s by reducing the quantity of jet fuel used • Ton-miles increased by 29.6% & jet fuel consumed rose by 8.8% nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  25. The Demand for Jet Fuel • Observations • The demand for jet fuel impacts the airlines and refineries alike • The short-run price elasticity of demand for jet-fuel is very inelastic nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  31. Competitive Factor Markets • The Market Supply of Inputs • The market supply for physical inputs is upward sloping • Examples: jet fuel, fabric, steel • The market supply for labor may be upward sloping and backward bending nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  32. Competitive Factor Markets • The Supply of Labor • The choice to supply labor is based on utility maximization • Leisure competes with labor for utility • Wage rate measures the price of leisure • Higher wage rate causes the price of leisure to increase nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  33. Competitive Factor Markets • The Supply of Labor • Higher wages encourage workers to substitute work for leisure (i.e. the substitution effect) • Higher wages allow the worker to purchase more goods, including leisure which reduces work hours (i.e. the income effect) nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  34. Competitive Factor Markets • The Supply of Labor • If the income effect exceeds the substitution effect the supply curve is backward bending nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  35. Supply of Labor Income Effect > Substitution Effect Income Effect < Substitution Effect Backward-Bending Supply of Labor Wage ($ per hour) Hours of Work per Day nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  41. Equilibrium in a Competitive Output Market DL(MRPL) = SL wC = MRPL MRPL = (P)(MPL) Markets are efficient Equilibrium in a Monopolistic Output Market MR < P MRP = (MR)(MPL) Hire LMat wage wM vM = marginal benefit to consumers wM = marginal cost to the firm Labor Market Equilibrium nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  42. Equilibrium in a Competitive Output Market DL(MRPL) = SL wC = MRPL MRPL = (P)(MPL) Markets are efficient Equilibrium in a Monopolistic Output Market Profits maximized Using less than the efficient level of input Labor Market Equilibrium nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  43. Equilibrium in aCompetitive Factor Market • Economic Rent • For a factor market, economic rent is the difference between the payments made to a factor of production and the minimum amount that must be spent to obtain the use of that factor. nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  44. SL = AE A Total expenditure (wage) paid is 0w* x AL* w* Economic Rent DL = MRPL B Economic rent is ABW* L* Economic Rent The economic rent associated with the employment of labor is the excess of wages paid above the minimum amount needed to hire workers. Wage 0 Number of Workers nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  45. Economic Rent • Question • What would be the economic rent if SLis perfectly elastic or perfectly inelastic? nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com

  46. Equilibrium in aCompetitive Factor Market • Land: A Perfectly Inelastic Supply • With land inelastically supplied, its price is determined entirely by demand, at least in the short run. nuhfil hanani : web site : www.nuhfil.com, email : nuhfil@yahoo.com
