Let's say there are two sectors of an economy, firms and households. Each household supplies labor to the firms.Households earn $100 per month, they spend $1 per mile to commute to work and they spend $50 on all other goods. Firms produce 1 ton of goods and earn $100 per month net profits on production, but must pay $10 per ton mile to ship its output to the port. All firms, residents use 1 acre of land. a. Calculate each sector's bid rent function. That is, what is each sector's ability to pay for a location as a function of distance to the center? How far from the center will land use change from business use to residential?
