3. Today is a great day for Stephanie. She played the MegaBillions lottery and won $25. In addition, while hanging out at Ho-Chung Bingo & Casino, she saw another patron drop a $16 voucher. Stephanie did not say anything and kept the voucher for herself. Later, Stephanie realized that she had lost her wallet which had both the MegaBillions ticket & $7 inside. Assume Stephanie's value function is defined as follows: if r >0 1-4V블 VI, v(1) =- if r < 0 What is the difference in the value of these outcomes if Stephanie in- tegrates them as compare to the value she would get from segregating them?

2. Suppose Jill derives utility from not only consuming goods, but also from enjoying leisure time. Let her utility function be defined as follows: U=C.25.R.75 where C is a consumption good that can be bought at a price of $1 and R is hours of leisure (relaxation) consumed per day. There are 24 hours in a day and leisure is defined as time spent not working. Jill has a job that pays $w per hour, a trust fund that pays her $M per day, and she can work any number of hours per day, L, she desires. C, consumption good; R, Leisure (relaxation); L, labor M, non-wage income; w, wage rate. a. Derive her labor supply function? b. Assume M = $100, at what wage is her quantity supplied of hours = 0?

Fatima has a credit card account with Bank Muscat (BM). The bank is considering whether to raise Fatima’s credit card interest rate. She can respond by moving to National Bank of Oman (NBO) or do nothing. If BM raises Fatima’s interest rate and she does nothing, then BM increases profit by 150 OMR while Fatima receives -150 OMR. If BM raises Fatima’s interest rate and Fatima transfers her account to NBO, then BM receives -100 and she receives 75 OMR. If BM does nothing and she does nothing, then both gets 0 OMR. If BM does nothing and Fatima transfer her account to NBO then BM receives -100 while Fatima receives -40 OMR 1)Draw the game with the help of a tree chart.
1. Suppose that you are in charge of purchasing for a U.S. corporation that is planning to acquire a large number of new computers. The company's computer specialist has identified two models, one Japanese-made and one U.S.-made, that meet the necessary specifications. Since the two models are essentially equivalent, the company will buy the one with the lower price. Suppose the U.S.-made computer costs $2,400, and a similar Japanese-made computer costs 242,000 yen. If the nominal exchange rate is 110 yen per dollar, which computer is a better buy? (Hint: calculate the real exchange rate for computers)
