Exercise 12

Table 21P-6 shows hypothetical salaries for four pairs of men and women who share the same position. It also shows the average increase in income associated with having certain qualities as a worker; assume these represent the only qualities that are relevant for doing the job well. Using these averages, determine for each pair whether there is gender discrimination. If so, say who it is against and how large the gap is in dollar terms.
