You own a fast food restaurant and must decide on a pricing strategy for burgers and fries. The market you serve contains equal numbers of 3 types of consumers called "Average", "Burger Buffs", and "Fries Fiends". Each consumer will purchase at most 1 of each food type. Their valuations of the two goods are listed in the following table. Assume for this problem that the costs of production are zero. Consumer Valuations Consumer Types Average Burger Buffs Fries Fiends Burgers $5.33 $12 $3 Fries $8 $3 $11 a. What are the optimal (separate) prices for burgers and fries? b. What is the optimal (pure) bundle price for a meal? Did bundling increase your profits? Explain.

The local diner offers a meal combination consisting of an appetizer, a soup, a main course, and a dessert. There are 4 appetizers, 5 soups, 5 main courses, and 4 desserts. Your diet restricts you to choosing between a dessert and an appetizer. (You cannot have both.) Given this restriction, how many three-course meals are possible? --------------------------------------choices
**Practice*** Amy and Bob are playing the following board game:(I) Amy starts. She has three possible actions: Pass, Attack, or Defend.(II) Bob observes what Amy chose, and then chooses between three actions with the same names: Pass, Attack, or Defend.(III) If either player passes, or one attacks and the other defends, then the game ends. But if either both players attack, or if both players defend, then Amy has to choose between two actions: Respond or Not Respond. The payoffs are as follows:- If both players pass, both players get a payoff of 0.- If a player attacks and the other player defends, the player that attacks gets a payoff of 1, while the player that defended gets a payoff of 2.- If a player passes but the other player attacks or defends, the player who passes gets a payoff of -1, and the player who attacked or defended gets a payoff of 3.- If both players attack or both players defend:– If Amy responds, she gets a payoff of 4, and Bob gets a payoff of 0.– If Amy does…

If Charles Lackey's utility costs remain constant at $500 per month, labor at $8 per hour, and cost of ingredients at $0.35 per loaf, but Charles does not pur- chase the blender suggested in Problem 1.14, what will the productiv- ity of the bakery be? What will be the percent increase or decrease?
Imagine a game where individuals can be either cooperative (like splitting a resource) or selfish (like grabbing the entire resource). Depending on the relative costs and benefits of interacting and the resource, there might be a variety of possible payoff matrices for such an interaction. Of the following matrices, which one illustrates the largest “temptation to cheat?”
1. Working with Numbers and Graphs Q1 Suppose the marginal costs of reading are constant at $5 per hour, while the marginal benefits of reading decline (over time) as more reading is performed. In particular, suppose the following table contains the marginal benefit associated with various levels of hours spent reading. Time Spent Reading Marginal Benefits (Hours) (Dollars per hour) 8 3 12 Assume the marginal-benefit curve is a straight line through the two points described in the table. MARGINAL COST, MARGINAL BENEFIT ($ per hour of reading per week) On the following graph, use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot the marginal-benefit curve for reading. Next, use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the marginal-cost curve for reading. Finally, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the point corresponding to the efficient amount of reading (that is, the point at which the net benefits of reading are maximized). 00 32 N 0 2 3 + 6 9 12 15 18 21 READING (Hours per week)…
