I put wage rate was unaffected and quantity went up because S=MRC is perfectly elasatic. I also said the profit maximizing level was 4 workers but I didn't know. What do you guys think?

I suspect this is a 6 point FRQ. a) b) and c) are worth 2 points each; 1 point for the correct answer (T or F) and one point for your explanation. If this is the case, then "unsure" would probably lose you a point. But then again, I would think that the above statement could be argued as either True or False, depending on your explanation. So I don't know how they'll mark this one! We'll just have to see! Keshav, where's the rest of your answer!? -Mr. W Chris, good question.

Which really matters, the answer or the explanation? I like to think that if you can explain it right then what you say before doesn't really matter.
