3. Consider a Simple Keynesian Model for a closed economy with government. Suppose there does not exist any public sector enterprise in the economy. Income earners are divided into two groups, Group 1 and Group 2, such that the saving propensity of the former is less than that of the latter. Aggregate planned investment is an increasing function of GDP (Y). Start with an initial equilibrium situation. Now, suppose the government imposes and collects additional taxes from Group 1 and uses the tax revenue so generated to make transfer payments to Group 2. Following this: (a) aggregate saving in the economy remains unchanged. (b) aggregate saving in the economy declines. (c) aggregate saving in the economy rises. (d) aggregate saving in the economy may change either way.

The dung beetle gets utility from consuming mud balls which are made out of mud and dung. Both inputs are measured in grams and perfectly divisible. Its utility from balls which contain m grams of mud and d grams of dung is u(m, d) = md. For reasons to do with the structural integrity of the balls, however, it cannot combine the two ingredients in very different quantities. The ratio of mud and dung it uses must fall between 1 : 2 and 2 : 1. Excess amounts of either ingredient are discarded at no cost to the dung beetle. (a) How much utility does the beetle get from the following bundles of mud and dung, (m, d)? i. (2,16). ii. (4,8). iii. (4,16). iv. (6,16/3). (b) Draw an indifference curve between mud and dung that represent the preferences of the dung beetle and gives the beetle a utility level of 32.
Now assume we can derive an economic analysis from the biological relationship. Fisherman select the number of boats to operate - boats will be the choice of EFFORT. Boats Total Harvest 0 (tons) 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1,200 2,200 2,800 3,000 2,800 2,400 1,600 800 Suppose the price of fish is $1,000 per ton. Suppose the cost to operate a boat for a year is $4,000. Construct a graph showing the total revenue and cost of the fishery. 0 What is the highest profit that can be earned, and how many boats are used for this? ( What is the corresponding long-run stock level associated with the profit-maximizing choice of effort? What is the profit earned if fisherman harvested the MSY? What number of boats are used in open access?
Question 5 Read the following scenario and answer the questions that follow. Scenario 2 A recent research article entitled "Milk Manic" made headlines in South Africa. The article explains the significant health benefits of consuming one glass of milk per day. In only seven days you will become stronger and smarter, but milk supercharges your immune system. The scientist further found that consuming a glass of milk a day as a cure for high blood pressure, anxiety and insomnia. For scenario 2, answer the following questions: By the aid of a graph, illustrate and explain how the research article will affect the equilibrium price and quantity in the milk market. The impact of price changes in related products (substitutes and complements) can lead to the same outcome as the news article-the same result as (5.1). 5.2.1. To reach the same result as (5.1). Specify the required price change for 5.1. 5.2. Cremora. Justify your answer. 5.2.2. To reach the same result as (5.1). Specify the…
