e ?技術(shù)變革 Technological Change ?其他要素的供給 Supply of Other factors 21 技術(shù)變革如何影響勞動需求? How Technological Changes Affect Labor Demand? ?技術(shù)變革通常增加了勞動的邊際產(chǎn)量,從而增加了勞動需求。 Technological advance typically raises the marginal product of labor, which in turn increases the demand for labor. ?也有可能技術(shù)進(jìn)步減少了勞動需求。 It is also possible for technological change to reduce labor demand. ?歷史表明,大多數(shù)技術(shù)進(jìn)步是 增加勞動 而不是節(jié)約勞動 的。 History suggests, however, that most technological progress is laboraugmenting instead of laborsaving. 22 勞動供給曲線 The Labor Supply Curve ? 勞動供給曲線反映工人如何根據(jù)機(jī)會成本的變動,作出勞動-閑暇的得失交換的決策。 The labor supply curve reflects how workers’ decisions about the laborleisure tradeoff respond to changes in opportunity cost. ? 向上傾斜的勞動供給曲線意味著,工資上升使工人增加他們供給的勞動量。 An upwardsloping labor supply curve means that an increase in the wages induces workers to increase the quantity of labor they supply. 23 勞動供給曲線 The Labor Supply Curve 供給Supply 工資(勞動價格) Wage (price of labor) 勞動數(shù)量Quantity of Labor 0 24 什么引起勞動供給曲線移動 What Causes the Labor Supply Curve to Shift? ?嗜好變動 Changes in Tastes ?可供選擇的機(jī)會改變 Changes in Alternative Opportunities ?移民 Immigration 25 勞動市場的均衡 Equilibrium in the Labor Market ?工資調(diào)整使勞動的供求平衡。 The wage adjusts to balance the supply and demand for labor. ?工資等于勞動的邊際產(chǎn)值。 The wage equals the value of the marginal product of labor. 26 均衡就業(yè)量Equilibrium employment, L 勞動市場的均衡 Equilibrium in the Labor Market... 供給Supply 工資(勞動價格)Wage (price of labor) 勞動數(shù)量Quantity of Labor 0 需求Demand 均衡工資Equilibrium wage, W 27 勞動市場的均衡 Equilibrium in the Labor Market ? 勞動的供給和需求決定均衡工資。 Labor supply and labor demand determine the equilibrium wage. ? 勞動供給或需求曲線的移動導(dǎo)致均衡工資改變。 Shifts in the supply or demand curve for labor cause the equilibrium wage to change. 28 勞動供給的移動 A Shift in Labor Supply...
