The equilibrium price would decrease, but the impact on the amount sold in the market would be ambiguous. O . The equilibrium price would increase, but the impact on the amount sold in the market would be ambiguous. O d. Equilibrium quantity would decrease, but the impact on equilibrium price would be ambiguous.

The following graph gives the labor market for laboratory aides in the imaginary country of Episteme. The equilibrium hourly wage is $10, and the equilibrium number of laboratory aides is 150. Suppose the federal government of Episteme has decided to institute an hourly payroll tax of $4 on laboratory aides and wants to determine whether the tax should be levied on the workers, the employers, or both (in such a way that half the tax is collected from each party). Use the graph input tool to evaluate these three proposals. Entering a number into the Tax Levied on Employers field (initially set at zero dollars per hour) shifts the demand curve down by the amount you enter, and entering a number into the Tax Levied on Workers field (initially set at zero dollars per hour) shifts the supply curve up by the amount you enter. To determine the before-tax wage for each tax proposal, adjust the amount in the Wage field until the quantity of labor supplied equals the quantity of labor demanded.…

3. Mercantilism Mercantilism is an economic system which developed after manorialism (from the 15th to the 18th centuries – time period) and is associated with colonial types of government. Some countries that practiced mercantilism included Great Britain, Portugal and Spain (society). Mercantilism is when a country believes that the more wealth it stores up, the greater their government should be. So, mercantilist countries build up their nation's wealth by exporting (selling) more goods than they import (buy from other countries). Countries needed to find places to sell their goods as well as to find places where to get natural resources. For this reason, they found and conquered colonies. Colonies supplied their Mother countries with the raw materials that were used to produce finished goods and then send those goods back to their colonies. Generally, merchants controlled what resources were to be produced and how they were to be used, sold or traded. However, monarchs (kings or…
2. (Market segment) In a monopoly market, the producer has a cost function of: C = 5+3q, there are two different types of consumers, they have different demand functions: p1 = 15-qı, P2=25-2y2.| a. If the monopolist can conduct the third-degree price discrimination, i.e. he can charge different price to different types of consumers, what is the price he will charge on each market? What is the quantity sold on each market? What is the total profit? b. If the monopolist cannot conduct third degree price discrimination, i.e. he cannot distinguish between the consumers but decide to charge a single price, what is the price he will charge? What is the quantity sold? What is his profit in this case?
Definitions: "Cost" is the actual expense of nurse wages, IV bags, meals, medications, lab tests and payment for the room and bed. "Charges" is the amount the hospital puts on its bill. Almost no one pays that. "Revenue" is the actual cash collected for the service. It is generally comprised of insurance payments and patient copayments. Part 1: Hospital Case Study: The number of patients at Harbordale Hospital increased from 120 to 144 from Monday to Tuesday. The hospital’s costs increased $720,000 to $722,000 as temporary nurses were called in to deal with the heavy patient load. Question: Explain in detail the changes Harbordale Hospital is experiencing.
(NON-RENEWABLE RESOURCES) The demand and supply functions for oil for the current generation (in million barrels) is: Demand: Qd = 250 – 5P Supply: Qs = 5P a. Other things being equal, assume that the available oil supply is 200 million barrels. Calculate and graph the efficient allocation of resources been the two generations. b. Given the limited supply of oil as a non-renewable resource, should the resource be managed by a monopoly? Explain your answer. Thank you for the help Bartleby! I really need it!
