2. (40 points) In their 1999 Applied Economics Letters paper, Zakir and Wunnava proposed the following specification in identifying the factors affecting infant mortality rates (IMR): IMR₁ = B₁+ B₁FERTILITY, + ß₂LNGNP; +ß¸LABOUR; + ßLABOUR² + B₂LITERACY, + BHEALTH; +ε₁ Where i=1,2,..., 117 (i.e., based on a cross-section of 117 countries) IMR = infant mortality rate-number of deaths before age 1 per 1000 live births FERTILITY = number of births per woman LNGNP = the natural logarithm of per capita GNP (note that GNP is measured in '000 of $s) LABOUR = percentage of women in the labor force LITERACY = female literacy rate HEALTH = expenditure on health care as percentage of GNP Following are their estimated regression results along with sample means (based on a cross-section of industrialized and third world countries for 1993).

Can you please answer (Question.4) below?
Assume we have the following simple Quantity Dependent demand and supply system for steel: Demand: Supply: Qa = 120 - 2 P Qs=8 P-80 Where Qa is the quantity of the commodity demanded at price P and Q is the quantity of the commodity supplied at price P. A: Draw the supply and demand curves for the above commodity. Clearly identify each curve and the horizontal and vertical intercept values for the demand curve. Also identify the vertical intercept value for the supply curve. BÜÄ B: Solve for the market equilibrium price and quantity. C: Calculate the numerical values for the consumer surplus and the producer surplus. D: Identify the consumer and producer surplus on the figure you graphed and carefully define the concept of both consumer and producer surplus. Explain why in the absence of externality a extern competitive market maximizes the sum of consumer and producer surplus. E: F: Numerically calculate total producer cost at the equilibrium quantity. Carefully identify the area of…
