Discuss how a nurse’s pay is determined and how the salary is structured.

Assignment: Labor Market Research

Due Date: Day 7 (Individual forum)

The first chapter of Principles of Economics discussed
the 10 principles of economics. Two principles that help explain
how wages are determined in a market economy are #1, People Face
Tradeoffs, and #7, Governments Can Sometimes Improve Market
Outcomes (Mankiw, 2004). Consider these principles when completing
your assignment. Think of how they apply to the labor market for
nurses.

Research the labor market for any state to determine how
nursing wages are calculated. Use the Internet for this
research.
