Question: Use supply/demand graphs to depict the separate market equilibrium case where female workers are less productive, by $5 in output per worker, than male workers, but are otherwise the same. Show wages and employment levels by gender, and gender gaps in these outcomes.

Now consider the case where men and women compete in the same labor market and employers consider them equivalent (only one total demand curve). If labor supply is the same, how will wages and employment rates differ by gender? Show using a graph.

Staying with the joint labor market from above information, use a graph to show how wages and employment rates differ by gender if male labor supply is greater than (lower, to the right of) female labor supply.
