Suppose all workers in a certain labor market are of either high quality or low quality.Potential employers value a high-quality worker at $15,000 per month and a low-quality worker at $7,500 per month.The monthly supply of high-quality workers is QsH = 0.04(W - 1,500) and the supply of low-quality workers is QsL = 0.08(W - 1,500) ,where W is the monthly wage.If workers' abilities are observable to employers,what are the equilibrium wages?
A) WH = $15,000; WL = $7,500
B) WH = $7,500; WL = $7,500
C) WH = $12,500; WL = $12,500
