Suppose that you run a tutoring service for economics students. The table below reports the demand for your services by 8 students per week. In the table are reported each student’s reservation price of a tutoring session per week. Note that each student demands at most one tutorial session per week. In addition, the opportunity cost of your time is $24 per session. There are no competitors for your service. A)How many tutor session is socially optimal? Explain. B)Assume that you can only charge a single price for your services. What price are you going to charge the students to maximize your profit? How many sessions will you sell? C)Now, suppose that you are able to practice perfect price discrimination. How many sessions will you sell to maximise profits? Compute consumer surplus and the Deadweight loss.

Economics The matrix given below represents the pay offs to two large countries, Zombec and Firan, each importing different set of products from the other. Each country's government must choose between two distinct trade policies, free trade and optimal tariffs. Each policy choice represents a game strategy. Firan Zombec Free trade Optim al tariff 50 60 Free trade 50 30 30 40 60 Optimal tariff 40 Determine the Nash equilibrium (if any) in the trade policy game described above. O a. The Nash cquilibrium cannot be determined. O b.Zombec will choose free trade and Firan will choose optimal tariff Oc Zombec will choose optimal tariff and Firan will choose free trade. Od. Both the countries will choose free trade. e. Both countries will choose optimal tariff.

Emerald Island has a climate that is suited to banana production and yields 840 pounds per acre. Tropical Springs has a climate that is not well-suited for bananas and yields only 250 pounds per acre. Emerald Island has a climate that is not well-suited for mango production and yields 325 pounds per acre. Tropical Springs has a climate that is suited for mangoes and yields 950 pounds per acre. In 2018, there was no trade between Emerald Island and Tropical Springs because of high tariffs and both countries together produced huge quantities of bananas and mangoes. In 2019, tariffs were eliminated because of a new trade agreement. What is likely to happen? Can you justify the trade agreement on the basis of Pareto's efficiency? Why or why not?
Malaria Eradication Back on the Table In response to the Gates Malaria Forum in October 2007, countries are debating the pros and cons of eradication. Dr. Arata Kochi of the World Health Organization believes that with enough money malaria cases could be cut by 90 percent, but it would be very expensive to eliminate the remaining 10 percent of cases, so countries should not strive to eradicate malaria. Make a graph with the percentage of malaria cases eliminated on the x -axis and the marginal cost and marginal benefit of driving down malaria cases on the y -axis. On your graph: (i) Draw a marginal cost curve and marginal benefit curve that are consistent with Dr. Kochi’s opinion. (ii) Identify the quantity of malaria eradicated that achieves allocative efficiency.
