Answer:

3. Larry values his labor at more than $30,000 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Firms demand labour, as per demand (MRPL) downward sloping curve. 'Marginal Revenue product of labour' signifies the additional revenue by hiring of an additional labour, MRPL = MR x MP. Equilibrium wage rate : marginal cost ie wage (W) = marginal revenue ie MRPL of labour.

However, the total value gained by firm due to hiring of an additional labour is VMPL. Value of marginal product is the price value of additional output by hiring an additional labour, VMPL = MR x P. VMPL is more than MRPL, the curve lies higher than it.

So, as mentioned wage (W) = MRPL. However, VMPL > MRPL ie W. So, Larry' paid manager salary $30000 would be less than value of manager's labour
