Answer to Question 1

Non-work activities are labeled leisure. Time that is not spent on leisure will be spent on work. So, the price of leisure, in terms of its opportunity cost, is the lost wages from not working. Individuals would consume leisure up to the point where the marginal benefit from leisure equals the marginal cost, where the marginal cost is the wage rate.
