本文假設工會組織擁有決定勞動工資率的議價能力，並利用異質性廠商模型，分析最低工資率變動的經濟效果。本文模型兼具有以下兩特色：(1)各家廠商在生產力上呈現異質性，只有生產力夠好的廠商才可以在市場上存活；(2)工會組織有完全議價能力，可以決定勞動的工資率。本文的主要發現是,最低工資率變動對於廠商的存活門檻、勞動工資率發生同向的作用，對於廠商家數發生反向的作用。此外，最低工資率上升，對經濟體並非一定帶來傷害。

This study constructs a analytical framework in which the Labor Union has full bargaining power and firms are heterogeneous to analyze the economic effect for adjustment of minimum wage ratio. There are two features in this model. First, every firm shows heterogeneity in productivity and survivors of the market are only those with good productivity. Second, the labor union has sufficient power to bargain wage ratio. The main findings of this study include:
1. Increase in the minimum wage ratio raises the survival threshold and labor wage ratio, but decreases the numbers of firms.
2. Increase in the minimum wage ratio does not necessarily result in decrease of labor demand.
