A firm's pricing strategy is based on a model where the price is set as a markup over its labor costs per unit of output. A key simplifying assumption in this model concerns the relationship between the number of employees and their individual output. The firm currently employs 100 workers and produces 1,000 units daily. If the firm reduces its workforce to 80 employees, what does this model assume will be the new output per worker?
