Multiple Choice

A) Since the income and substitution effects move in the same direction, the amount of labor supplied will increase.
B) Since the income effect will dominate the substitution effect, the amount of labor supplied will decrease.
C) We don't know what will happen to the quantity of labor supplied, since we don't know whether the income effect or substitution effect will dominate.
