Worker profits

Remember that worker profits are the wage minus the cost of effort:

• If you accept no job, you earn {{ outside_option_workers_points_tokens }} {{ currency_plural }} .
• If you accept job and choose {{ name_low_effort }} effort, profits equal wage minus {{ name_low_effort }} cost of effort: wage – {{ low_effort_points_tokens }} {{ currency_plural }} .
• If you accept job and choose {{ name_high_effort }} effort, profits equal wage minus {{ name_high_effort }} cost of effort: wage – {{ high_effort_points_tokens }} {{ currency_plural }} .

Employer profits

If an employers does not employ any workers, they earn 0 {{ currency_plural }}. If they employ one or two workers, profits are the difference between the total revenue and the wages they pay:

Profit = Total revenue - total wage payments.

The total revenue depends on the number of workers they employ and the effort the workers provide.

• If a worker provides {{ name_high_effort }} effort the employers revenue will be considerably larger than if the worker provides {{ name_low_effort }} effort. For example, the employer gets {{ gain_high_effort_1_worker }} {{ currency_plural }} revenue in case of {{ name_high_effort }} effort and {{ gain_low_effort_1_worker }} {{ currency_plural }} in case of {{ name_low_effort }} effort.
• If they employ two workers, each worker becomes somewhat less productive. The total revenue of two workers may still be larger, but not twice as large. For example, an employer gets {{ gain_high_effort_2_workers }} {{ currency_plural }} for each worker providing {{ name_high_effort }} effort and {{ gain_low_effort_2_workers }} {{ currency_plural }} for each worker providing {{ name_low_effort }} effort if they employ two workers.

The table below summarizes the total revenue in each case.
