2. A polluter with MAC = 120 - 2E faces an emission tax rate of $30/units. If its marginal abatement cost function shifts down to MAC = 80 - 2E due to adoption of a new technology, then what is the amount of cost-savings achieved by the polluter from adopting the new technology? What is the maximumn amount the polluter is likely to pay for the new technology? Draw a graph to illustrate your answer.

xt:Bong-Cha is deciding what to do during the 30-minute break between her college classes. One rule she could follow is, "Choose the activity with the highest value" (A). Another rule she could follow is, "Choose the activity with the lowest opportunity cost" (B). Do you think Bong-Cha's choice if she follows rule (A) will be the same as the choice she would make if she followed rule (B)? [another way to think about it, "Is rule (A) identical to rule (B) in a sense that they would both induce the same choice?"].
Springfield is a small town with a total civilian population of 800. Of this population, 125 are under the age of 16. Of the population 16 and over, there are 350 working full-time and another 50 working part-time. Of the remaining adult population, 30 people recently quit their jobs in order to look for better employment. Finally, there are 40 full-time students (not working), 180 retired and another 25 stay-at-home spouses.
The following relative frequency distribution summarizes the ages of women who had a child in the last year. Ages 15 up to 20 20 up to 25 25 up to 30 30 up to 35 35 up to 40 40 up to 45 Relative Frequency 0.10 0.25 0.28 0.24 0.11 0.02 i. Write the values of the cumulative relative frequency distribution. ii. What percent of the women were at least 25 but less than 35 years old? iii. Assume the relative frequency distribution is based on a sample of 2,000 women. How many women were less than 30 years old?
a) For each, find the expressions for marginal utilities and the marginal rate of substitution, and determine whether monotonicity and convexity are met.
Statistics Denmark monitors the development of economic variables and measures e.g. productivity development.In general, it is one of the laws of economics that employee productivity determines the ability of employers to pay employees wages. The higher the productivity (per capita output), the higher the wages that can be paid. In a recession, such as Covid, companies are generally reducing their use of labor. The latest statistics show the following: In the third quarter of 2020, labor productivity growth in Denmark was 2%. This increase alone does not say much, but is considered to be able to reflect an increase in productivity following a contraction in labor input. a. Show the relationship between production and labor use in the short term and at the same time explain with a picture what can cause the growth of productivity. b. What is happening to marginal production at the same time? c. Show how wages develop if companies keep marginal costs fixed in the above circumstances…

Compute the R² using the following information. What does this number mean? Wage = 4.43 +0.61Edu + e n = 1089, SST = 37211.6, SSE 37211.6, SSE 19848.2 R² = = = 0.4666. 46.66% of the variation in wage can be explained by education. R² = 0.5334. 53.34% of the variation in wage can be explained by education. R² = 0.61.61% of the variation in wage can be - explained by education. R² = 0.3043. 30.43% of the variation in wage can be explained by education.
