Card 4 / 16: Why is a living wage considered a price floor? Does imposing a living wage have the same outcome as a minimum wage?
Answer:
Since a living wage is a suggested minimum wage, it acts like a price floor (assuming, of course, that it is followed). If the living wage is binding, it will cause an excess supply of labor at that wage rate.
