The town of Fenerbahce has hired world‐class econometricians to investigate their criminal justice system. The researchers report an interesting finding. People who were previously detected and punished by law enforcers gain a better understanding of the functioning of the law enforcement system, and are better able to exploit laws designed to protect defendants against the state. Thus, people who have been detected and punished before are better able to avoid detection and punishment. In particular, theyreport the following facts: ‐ The offense of jay‐walking causes social harm of $100.‐ A person who has never been punished for jaywalking before faces a 0.5probability of being detected while jaywalking.‐ A person who has been punished before for jaywalking faces a probability of0.25 of being detected while jaywalking. The town wants to implement optimal punishment schemes. It is well known thateveryone in Fenerbahce is risk‐neutral and rich (i.e. not judgment proof). Moreover, the…
The movie theater in Glendon has two types of customers: domestic students (group 1) and international students (group 2). At a price of p, cents, the number of movie tickets that domestic students are willing to buy per year is given by: q₁-170-0.7p₁. At a price of p₂ cents, the number of movie tickets that international students are willing to buy per year is given by: 92-87-0.3p₂. The total costs for the movie theater depend on the total number of tickets sold, q₁+92, and are given by the following total cost function C(q₁+92)=(91+9₂)². Suppose that the movie theater can identify which students are domestic and which students are international, and students are unable to resell movie tickets to each other. This enables the theater to charge different prices to domestic vs international students. How many movie tickets will domestic students buy (9₁)? How many movie tickets will international students buy (9₂)?

Let Q be the number of public toilets (measured in thousands). The value of toilets is given by V = 2 va, while the cost of the toilets is given by C = 0.2Q. A bureaucrat in the health ministry wishes to maximise the size of their agency. (a) What would be the number of public toilets which would accomplish this (to the nearest thousand)? (b) What would be the efficient number of toilets (to the nearest thousand)? (c) What measures could parliament, which oversees the size of ministries, do to prevent them growing ever bigger?

Ex 8. An airline's data indicate that 50 percent of people who begin the online process of booking a flight never complete the process and pay for the flight. To reduce this percentage, the airline is considering changing its website so that the entire booking process, including flight and seat selection and payment, can be done on two simple pages rather than the current four pages. A random sample of 300 customers who begin the booking process are exposed to the new system, and 117 of them do not complete the process. a. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses needed to attempt to provide evidence that the new system has reduced the noncompletion percentage. b. Use critical values to perform the hypothesis test by setting α equal to .10, .05, .01, and .001
THE NEXT TWO QUESTIONS ARE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING SITUATION: We have three voters and three alternatives: Triangle, Circle, and Square. There are three possible lists of individual preferences: I: Voter 1: T, C, S Voter 2: S, T, C Voter 3: C, T, S II: Voter 1: T, C, S Voter 2: S, T, C Voter 3: T, S, C III: Voter 1: S, C, T Voter 2: C, S, T Voter 3: T, S, C 6. In which of the three lists do voters have single-peaked preferences? (HINT: Think about ordering the shapes either alphabetically or by number of corners.) a) All of them. b) II only. c) None of them. d) I and II only. e) I only. 7. Suppose that a given social choice procedure chooses T as the winner in Situation I, and chooses C and S as the winners in Situation II. Which properties can we conclude are violated by that social choice procedure? a) The Pareto condition but not the Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives condition. b) The Pareto condition, the Condorcet condition, and the Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives…

Exercise 3.14: Challenging Question. In an attempt to reduce the deficit, the government of Italy has decided to sell a 14th century palace near Rome. The palace is in disrepair and is not generating any revenue for the government. From now on we'll call the government Player G. A Chinese millionaire has offered to purchase the palace for $p. Alternatively, Player G can organize an auction among n interested parties (n ≥ 2). The participants to the auction (we'll call them players) have been randomly assigned labels 1,2,...,n. Player is willing to pay up to $p, for the palace, where p, is a positive integer. For the auction assume the following: (1) it is a simultaneous, sealed-bid second-price auction, (2) bids must be non-negative integers, (3) each player only cares about his own wealth, (4) the tie-breaking rule for the auction is that the palace is given to that player who has the lowest index (e.g. if the highest bid was submitted by Players 3, 5 and 12 then the palace is given…
