A firm uses skilled labor, unskilled labor, and capital, and is initially in equilibrium. Suppose that the wage paid to unskilled labor falls, and that unskilled labor is a substitute in production with both skilled labor and capital. Depict in separate graphs of (a) capital and unskilled labor and (b) capital and skilled labor how the original equilibrium choices change in response to the decline in wages paid to unskilled workers. What are the expected impacts on the wage and employment level for each group of worker, and why? How does this factor into the growth of inequality in recent decades in the United States?
