QUESTION 19<br>Consider the consumer's problem. A uniform increase of both prices by 100% (so that both prices double) with a fixed monetary income is equivalent to a decrease of<br>monetary income by a factor T (so that the new income is Tm), keeping both prices fixed at their original level<br>O a. T=0.2<br>O b. T=0.1<br>OC. T=0.25<br>O d. T=0.9<br>O e. T=0.5<br>QUESTION 20<br>A firm produces a commodity using Capital (K) and Labor (L). K and L are perfect complements in production. Given current input prices, the firm employs 50 units of L<br>and 50 units of K to produce 2500 units of output. Due to stronger Unions, wages increase by 20%. The firm, however, keeps producing the same level of output after<br>the increase in wages. The new input mix after the increase in wages will be such that:<br>O a. Not enough information to answer<br>O b. Both K and L decrease<br>O. Both K and L remain unchanged<br>O d. K increases and L decreases<br>O e. K decreases and L increases<br>
