Graph of TB & TC from Hours Working: The graph below measures the benefits and costs from working, from the perspective of a worker. The variable Q stands for the number of hours the worker works, such that the horizontal axis measures the hours of work per week. On the assumption that they can choose their hours, the worker estimates a total benefit ( TB) from working according to the equation, TB = 1.335Q. (The value "1.335" might be interpreted as the hourly wage paid to the worker.) The worker estimates their total cost from working with the equation, TC = Q(0.463)+Q°(0.027). (The TC of each Q might be interpreted as including the displeasure of effort and exertion from working Q hours.) It can be assumed that TC > TB for all hours beyond point B (32.3).

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted both the education and health system in most, if not all, nations in the world. The scarring effects of the pandemic are predicted to be long-lasting, some of which are the fear of learning-loss and lower future earnings for the current students. Provide evidence(s) that support and/or contradict this statement! If such scarring is expected to occur, would the scarring effects would be worse for the developing countries than the developed ones, and whether the effects would be worse for certain groups such as the poor, women, children, etc.!

Now assume we can derive an economic analysis from the biological relationship. Fisherman select the number of boats to operate - boats will be the choice of EFFORT. Boats Total Harvest 0 (tons) 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1,200 2,200 2,800 3,000 2,800 2,400 1,600 800 Suppose the price of fish is $1,000 per ton. Suppose the cost to operate a boat for a year is $4,000. Construct a graph showing the total revenue and cost of the fishery. 0 What is the highest profit that can be earned, and how many boats are used for this? ( What is the corresponding long-run stock level associated with the profit-maximizing choice of effort? What is the profit earned if fisherman harvested the MSY? What number of boats are used in open access?
Access to health and a person’s health status play an important role in longevity and quality of life. As we have sadly learned in the pandemic, the majority of serious illnesses and deaths stem from lower income and certain minority groups. Please discuss your view of these important variables that impact our health system. Please remember to cite at least one source and clearly articulate your views (250 Words)

Assume a market basket consisting of gasoline (10 gallons), milk (3 gallons), ground beef (6 pounds), and men’s underwear (1 pack). While it may seem strange, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspace often monitored sales of men’s underwear as a broader indicator of economic health. Calculate the cost of the market basket given current prices for gasoline ($3.25/gal), milk ($4.10/gal), ground beef ($3.59/pound), and men’s underwear ($9.49/pack). The cost of the market basket one year ago was $71.16. Calculate the year-over-year inflation rate.
Welfare and Efficiency - End of Chapter Problem A study by University of Minnesota economist, Joel Waldfogel, estimated the difference in the actual monetary value of gifts received and how much the recipients would have been willing to pay to buy them on their own. The study suggested that the average recipient's valuation was approximately 90% of the actual purchase price. a. In 2019, it was estimated that the average amount spent on winter holiday gifts in Canada was $692. Based on the estimate from the Waldfogel study, how much of this would be deadweight loss? Enter your answer to the cent. b. In 2019, approximately 30 million people in Canada above the age of 18. Assuming that each individual purchased $692 worth of gifts, what was the total deadweight loss associated with gift giving in Canada? Round your answer to the nearest million dollars. million
The revenue from the sale of a product is, in dollars, R = 1500x + 3000(2x+3)-1 - 1000 where x is the number of units sold. Find the marginal revenue when 200 units are sold. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) $ Interpret your result. If the sales go from 200 units sold to units sold, the revenue will increase by about $ Suppose that the weekly sales volume y (in thousands of units sold) depends on the price per unit (in dollars) of the product according to the following formula. y = 30(3p+ 1) −2/5, p > 0 (a) What is the rate of change in sales volume when the price is $24? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) dy = dp (b) Interpret your answer to part (a). (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) If the price increases $1, the sales volume will decrease by If the demand for q units of a product priced at $p per unit is described by the equation p = 500 √29 + 7 find the rate of change of p with respect to q. dp = dq 1 units.
[Maximum 200 words]. Do some internet based research to compare drugs prices across countries and comment on how expensive they are in the US compared to some of the other western countries. Ball park averages should be fine (no need to be exact, but you may want to cite your sources). Compare their sizes also in terms of population as well (for instance US vs Canada or UK). Discuss the possible effects of such a policy both in the US and Canada.
