Let me tell you what some other people say, though: 1  The EWGâs Skin Deep Database lists it as a 5-6 (or moderate hazard), but trying to find the studies they used for their rating proved difficult, and the ones I did find were the nebulous âborax or boric acidâ test studies.
1 This is so because, my nominal wages have increased by 10% while the average price level (CPI) has increased by only 5%. 2  Thus today (in 2010) with my higher nominal wage ($1100.00) I can buy more than I could buy last year.
The higher the money wage rate, the higher are firms costs and smaller is quantity firms are willing to supply at each price level. So increase in money wage rate decreases aggregate supply. Change in money wage rate does not change potential GDP.
