Answer to Question 1

When there is heavy competition for a position, its salary is usually lower because numerous alternative candidates are available.

Answer to Question 2

Salaries differ because employers value some positions more or less than other positions. If the skills required for a job are scarce in a labor force, employers are willing to pay a higher price.
