The market equilibrium wage is currently $12 per hour among hairdressers. At that wage, 17,323 hairdressers are currently employed in the state. The state legislature then sets a minimum wage of $11.50 per hour for hairdressers. If there are no changes to either the demand or supply for hairdressers when that minimum wage is imposed, the number of hairdressers employed in the state will be:
A) Fewer than 17,323.
B) Still 17,323.
C) More than 17,323.
D) This is a bilateral monopsony so you can't tell.
