A decision you can investigate
- A town introduces a wage floor above the previous market wage. Some workers who keep their jobs gain income, while employers reconsider hours, staffing and prices.
- The effect depends on where the floor sits and how the market responds.
Build the explanation
- A minimum wage 最低工资 is a legal wage floor. In a competitive model, a floor above equilibrium raises quantity of labour supplied and reduces quantity demanded, creating excess supply of labour. A floor below equilibrium is non-binding 非约束性 in that simple model.
- Reasons include protecting low-paid workers and raising living standards. Possible costs include higher business expenses, reduced jobs/hours or higher prices. Competition rules separately address market power, consumer interests and mergers that could weaken competition.
Work through the evidence
- At the original equilibrium wage 20 yuan, employers demand and workers supply 100 hours. At a minimum wage of 24, the supplied schedule shows demand 80 hours and supply 120.
- Excess labour supply = Qs − Qd = 120 − 80 = 40 hours. Employed hours in this model are 80, not the 120 offered. A further increase can widen the gap, depending on the slopes and response.

Test the limits
- The diagram is a model, not proof that every real minimum-wage rise cuts employment by the same amount. Enforcement, market power, productivity, staff turnover and demand responsiveness can change outcomes.
- Do not label all 40 hours as identified newly unemployed people: the schedule is measured in hours and includes additional labour offered. Evaluate workers who retain employment as well as those unable to find work.

Use the terms precisely
- minimum wage: A legal lower limit on the wage paid for covered work.
- non-binding: A limit that does not constrain the market’s chosen outcome.
