1.2 Consider the following customers of a Japanese sushi restaurant. Their total benefit (TB) measured in terms of the maximum amount of money they are willing to pay for n dishes are given below. Dish of sushi 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Customer A 0 60 90 Total Benefit ($) 115 125 120 110 95 70 Customer B 0 30 50 60 55 50 40 25 5 As postulated in economics, customers are maximizing their economic surpluses. One can decide not to dine in this Japanese restaurant and can get zero economic surplus. (a) The sushi restaurant is now charging customers $20 per dish. How many dishes do these two customers choose to buy under this pricing arrangement respectively? Use both total and marginal approach to solve the problem. Show your steps. (b) Now, the sushi restaurant changes its pricing policy. Now they charge each customer $100 and let them order as many as they want. Will the customers continue to dine in this restaurant? If so, how many dishes would they choose to buy? Again, solve this using both…
Quantity (in gallons) Total Price Revenue $8 $0 50 7 350 100 600 150 750 200 4 800 250 3 750 300 600 350 1 350 400 Imagine a small town in a remote area where only two residents, Maria and Miguel, own dairies that produce milk. Their respective dairies are equal in size. Each week Maria and Miguel work together to decide how many gallons of milk to produce and what price to charge. To keep things simple, suppose that Maria and Miguel can produce as much milk as they want without cost so that the marginal cost is zero and there are no fixed costs. The weekly town demand schedule and total revenue schedule for milk is shown in the table above. Suppose the town enacts new antitrust laws that prohibit Maria and Miguel from operating as a cartel. Assuming that each producer can only modify quantity in increments of 50, which of the following is consistent with the Nash equilibrium for this scenario? Maria will charge a price of $5 for each gallon. Miguel will sell 100 gallons. Milk will…
Table 17-2 The information in the table depicts the total demand for wireless Internet subscriptions in a small urban market. Assume that each wireless Internet operator pays a fixed cost of $100,000 (per year) to provide wireless Internet in the market area and that the marginal cost of providing the wireless Internet service to a household is zero. Quantity 0 2000 4000 6000 8,000 Price (per year) $180 $150 $120 $90 $60 10,000 $30 12,000 $0 Refer to Table 17-2. Assume that there are two profit-maximizing wireless Internet companies operating in this market. Further assume that they are not able to "collude" on price and quantity of wireless Internet subscriptions to sell. How many wireless Internet subscriptions will be collectively sold (by both firms) when this market reaches a Nash equilibrium? Oa. 2000 Ob.4000 OC. 6000 O d. 58000
8. Consumer and Producer Surplus Suppose Charles is the only seller in the market for bottled water and Yakov is the only buyer. The following lists show the value Yakov places on a bottle of water and the cost Charles incurs to produce each bottle of water: Yakov's Value Value of first bottle: $7 Value of second bottle: $5 Value of third bottle: $3 Value of fourth bottle: $1 Charles's Costs Cost of first bottle: $1 Cost of second bottle: $3 Cost of third bottle: $5 Cost of fourth bottle: $7 The following table shows their respective supply and demand schedules: Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied $1 or less 4 о $1 to $3 3 1 $3 to $5 2 2 $5 to $7 1 3 More than $7 0 4 Use Charles's supply schedule and Yakov's demand schedule to find the quantity supplied and quantity demanded at prices of $2, $4, and $6. Enter these values in the following table. Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied 2 4 A price of brings supply and demand into equilibrium. At the equilibrium price, consumer…

18. Microeconomics Imagine that we have found out the demand for a product for three individuals. Each individual's demand can be described by the demand functions:Q ^ A = 10 –2PQ ^ B = 10 –2PQ ^ C = 10 –2Pa) What is the total demand function if the product above is a private product? b) What is the total demand function if the product above is a collective product? c) If the total cost of the product is given by the function TC = 7.5Q, what is the optimal quantity if the product is a private product? d) If the total cost of the product is given by the function TC = 7.5Q, what is the optimal quantity if the product is a collective product? e) Briefly state what characterizes a collective commodity with a maximum of one sentence D only solve
