Prove that a change in the expected price level will shift the Ns curve in the labor market modeled in terms of the nominal wage.Draw the garphs
Argument / Proof
Start from a wage–setting relation written in nominal terms:
W = Pe · F(u, z)
where W is the nominal wage, Pe is the expected price level, u is the unemployment rate, z is a vector of other wage determinants, and F(·) is the wage-setting function (typically decreasing in u).
Express unemployment u in terms of employment N (for a normalized labor force of 1, u = 1 − N). Then the nominal wage as a function of employment is
W = Pe · F(1 − N, z).
This equation is the Ns curve expressed in nominal wage–employment space: for any given employment N, wage setters choose a nominal wage equal to Pe multiplied by F(1 − N, z).
Compare two expected price levels, Pe0 and Pe1 with Pe1 > Pe0. For the same employment N, the nominal wage implied by the wage–setting relation is proportional to Pe, so
W1(N) = Pe1 · F(1 − N, z) > W0(N) = Pe0 · F(1 − N, z).
Therefore, an increase in the expected price level raises the nominal wage associated with every N, i.e. the Ns curve shifts upward (a parallel multiplicative shift when F does not depend on Pe directly).
In a standard wage–setting / price–setting labor market diagram with W on the vertical axis and N on the horizontal axis:
The Ns curve (from W = Pe·F(1 − N, z)) is upward sloping (higher N → lower u → higher wage).
Labor demand (or wage implied by firms’ demand for labor) is downward sloping in N.
An increase in Pe shifts the entire Ns curve up (higher nominal wage at each N), changing the equilibrium nominal wage and employment where Ns intersects labor demand.
Illustrative graph
Notes: The Ns curves are drawn as upward sloping because higher employment reduces unemployment (u = 1 − N), which raises the wage set by workers/firms via F(·). An increase in expected price level Pe multiplies the right-hand side of W = Pe·F(1 − N, z), producing an upward shift of the Ns curve in W–N space. -
