Consider Tralfamadore, a hypothetical country that produces only cakes. In 2017, a cake is priced at $4.00. Complete the first row of the table with the quantity of cakes that can be bought with $900. Hint: In this problem, assume it is not possible to buy a fraction of a cake, and always round down to the nearest whole cake. For example, if your calculations result in 1.5 cakes, the answer should be 1 cake. Year Price of a Cake Cakes Bought with $900 (Dollars) (Quantity) 2017 4.00 2018 Suppose the government of Tralfamadore cannot raise sufficient tax revenue to pay its debts. In order to meet its debt obligations, the government prints money. As a result, the money supply rises by 20% by 2018. Assuming monetary neutrality holds, complete the second row of the table with the new price of a cake and the new quantity of cakes that can be bought with $900 in 2018. The impact of the government's decision to raise revenue by printing…

The US and France each have 100 hours of labor to allocate between producing cheese and bread. With 1 labor hour, the US can produce either 100 loaves of bread, or 1 wheel of cheese. With 1 labor hour, France can produce either 400 loaves of bread, or 2 wheels of cheese. Suppose the countries jointly decide to produce a combined amount of 45000 loaves of bread. What is the maximum amount of cheese they can jointly produce? 50 wheels O wheels 100 wheels 25 wheels Moving to another question will save this response. Question 5 of 25
Wenatchee is a town on a large river. On the other side of the river is East Wenatchee (since the river is the county line, these are in two different counties and thus, two different cities.) Wenatchee (which I refuse to call "West Wenatchee") is pretty much hemmed in on all sides by mountains. East Wenatchee, on the other hand, sits on a large plateau surrounded by wheat fields. Assume that housing in Wenatchee and housing in East Wenatchee are what economists call "perfect substitutes." This means basically that people don't care whether they live in Wenatchee or East Wenatchee. Then imagine that in the nearest big city there is a pandemic followed by a bunch of riots. Part of the town is taken over by Marxists revolutionaries. The city starts dismantling the police and raising taxes because they have no money. (Just try to imagine it!) and this causes a lot of people to decide it would be nice to live in a smaller town on the other side of the mountains. Which will grow…
e) Suppose a tariff allowed an industry to create 200,000 jobs paying an average of $22,500 per year. Before the tariff consumers bought 3 billion units (60% imported) at a price of $30. After the tariff they bought 2.75 billion units (none imported) at a price of $36. How much did total consumer spending on the good increase and how much per new job?
The table below shows the productivity level of each country for different goods in terms of how much output can be produced with an hour of labor. In the rightmost column, we have the total labor hours available in each country. Please answer the questions using the data provided in the table. labor (hours) 70 20 U.S. Mexico cotton/hr 70 40 shirt/hr 50 30 a) Describe the comparative advantage of each country. b) c) Plot the production possibilities curve for each country, under autarky. Describe the price range (cotton per shirt) that is acceptable for both countries to trade with each other.

At the beginning of the year, you have a saw worth $2,000 and a bunch of trees. says it will pay you $4,000 to not cut down your trees. Freaks4Environment Instead, you hire Lei to use your saw to cut down all of the trees. At the end of the year: you sell trees Lei cut down for $27,000; you pay Lei $15,000; and your saw is now worth $1,000. Based on this information, how much GDP has been created? Round to two decimal places. Do not enter the currency symbol, but enter the negative sign if appropriate. If your answer is -$1.125, enter -1.13. 27,000

You have a field on which you can grow two types of crops, barley and wheat. The field has 30 acres and each acre can produce 2 wheat or 3 barley. Suppose you are producing 60 barley and it is economically efficient for you to do so. How much wheat are you producing? 5 wheat 10 wheat 15 wheat 20 wheat
Suppose there exist two imaginary countries, Everglades and Yosemite. Their labor forces are each capable of supplying four million hours per day that can be used to produce chinos, pistachios, or some combination of the two. The following table shows the amount of chinos or pistachios that can be produced by one hour of labor. Country Everglades Yosemite Chinos Pistachios (Pairs per hour of labor) (Pounds per hour of labor) 4 6 16 12 Suppose that initially Yosemite uses 1 million hours of labor per day to produce chinos and 3 million hours per day to produce pistachios, while Everglades uses 3 million hours of labor per day to produce chinos and 1 million-hours per day to produce pistachios. As a result, Everglades produces 12 million pairs of chinos and 16 million pounds of pistachios, and Yosemite produces 6 million pairs of chinos and 36 million pounds of pistachios. Assume there are no other countries willing to engage in trade, so, in the absence of trade between these two…
