Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Competitive firms that discriminate may have to pay a higher wage than firms that do not discriminate. Since their costs are higher, they will have difficulty surviving in the long run in a highly competitive market. Other firms, which hire lower cost labor, will be able to undercut the output prices of wage-discriminating firms.
