Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

In a competitive labor market, a minimum wage should reduce the equilibrium level of employment. In the case of a monopsony, imposing a minimum wage removes market power from the single firm and encourages the firm to hire more workers than it would otherwise.
