The graph given below indicates Marshall's marginal utility for two products, A and B. Marginal utility 24 20 16 12 8 4 0 (1) Quantity 1 2 3 4 5 6 2 (2) Product A MU 4 Quantity of A: Quantity of B: 6 8 Quantity per period (3) Product A (4) MU per $ Product B (at $2) MU 10 Product A Product B 12 a) From the graph above, complete columns 2 and 4 of the table above. Round your answers to whole numbers. b) If the price of both products is $1, what quantity of each good would Marshall purchase if his budget was $8? Quantity of A: Quantity of B: c) Suppose that the price of product A increases to $2. Complete column 3 of table above. d) If Marshall's budget remained the same, what quantities of each good would he now purchase?
Sven runs a daycare for some of the neighborhood children, where he earns $300/day inrevenue. He runs the daycare out of his home, for which the mortgage costs $3,000 per month($100 per day). Each day, Sven spends $50 on food, diapers, and other supplies. He also hassome toys and playground equipment that originally cost $500, but which he wouldn’t getany money for reselling today. Sven looks after all the children himself, so he doesn’t pay anymoney in labor costs. If he weren’t busy with the daycare, he could earn $120 per day as aprivate nanny. What is Sven’s daily economic profit from the daycare? (Select one from below) (a) $300: Economic profit is equal to revenue.(b) $180: That is his revenue minus opportunity cost.(c) $150: That is his revenue minus input cost.(d) $130: That is his revenue minus variable cost.(e) $50: That is his revenue minus accounting cost.(f) $30: That is his revenue minus economic cost.(g) $0: In the long run, all firms must make zero profits.(h) –$200:…
1. Suppose that on the island, the currency is shell beads. The going price for coconuts is 1 bead and that for fish is 1 bead. You earn 20 beads per period from your job as a harvester. Given the data in the table, your equilibrium or maximum satisfaction coconut-fish combination will be ____?coconut and ____? fish. Explain why this will be the chosen combination. 2. Compare your new total satisfaction level with the old one. Old data: 2.5 beads for coconut, 1 bead for fish (optimal combination of coconut-fish was 5 coconuts and 8 fishes). Thank you.

1. Suppose that you are in charge of purchasing for a U.S. corporation that is planning to acquire a large number of new computers. The company's computer specialist has identified two models, one Japanese-made and one U.S.-made, that meet the necessary specifications. Since the two models are essentially equivalent, the company will buy the one with the lower price. Suppose the U.S.-made computer costs $2,400, and a similar Japanese-made computer costs 242,000 yen. If the nominal exchange rate is 110 yen per dollar, which computer is a better buy? (Hint: calculate the real exchange rate for computers)
Suppose your total benefits of renting x DVD's next month is: -²2² +14x+50 The cost of renting a DVD is $2, and so the total cost of renting x DVD's is $2x. Calculate your net benefit from watching 1, 2...8 DVDs. Complete column (2). (Enter your responses as integers.) (1) DVDs Rented 0 1 N345678 2 (2) Total Net Benefit
. (b) Suppose there are two Bohemian roommates with identical preferences who derive utility from the number of paintings hung on their hotel's walls (X) and the number of granola bars (Y) that they eat. The specific utility function underlying their preferences is given by: U₁ (X,Y)= X1¹³ Y₁23 (for i=1.2) mes Given that each roommate has $300 to spend and P=$100, Py = $ 0.20, explore the consequences of various expenditure allocations. In particular provide a detailed analysis of the possibility leading to free ridership Will that solution be efficient? If so or if not, why? Calculate the efficient allocation. What arrangement for cost sharing would be Pareto superior?
