Nn4 Suppose that the perfectly competitive market for milk is made up of identical firms with long-run total cost functions given byTC(Q) = 5Q³ – 30Q² +500, where Q is a gallon of milk. Assume that these cost functions are independent of the number offirms in the market and that firms may enter or exit the market freely. Market demand is QD = 10,000 - 200 P. Suppose that thelong-run equilibrium price is $5, the quantity produced by each firm is 3, and the number of firms in the industry is 3,000 firms.Suppose that market demand increases to Q₂ = 14,000 - 200P. Solve for the new long-run competitive equilibrium number offirms. Give your answer as a whole number.number of firms:

Suppose that the perfectly competitive market for milk is made up of identical firms with long-run total cost functions given by TC(Q) = 5Q³ − 30Q² +500, where Q is a gallon of milk. Assume that these cost functions are independent of the number of firms in the market and that firms may enter or exit the market freely. Market demand is Q¹ = 10,000 - 200P. Suppose that the long-run equilibrium price is $5, the quantity produced by each firm is 3, and the number of firms in the industry is 3,000 firms. Suppose that market demand increases to Q₂ = 14,000 - 200P. Solve for the new long-run competitive equilibrium number of firms. Give your answer as a whole number.

Springfield is a small town with a total civilian population of 800. Of this population, 125 are under the age of 16. Of the population 16 and over, there are 350 working full-time and another 50 working part-time. Of the remaining adult population, 30 people recently quit their jobs in order to look for better employment. Finally, there are 40 full-time students (not working), 180 retired and another 25 stay-at-home spouses.
The Great Recession of 2007-2009 hit young people particularly hard, with long-lasting effects. The U.S. unemployment rate for 20- to 24-year-olds went from 8.5% in 2007 to 16% in 2009, stayed above 13% through 2012, but fell to 7% by the first half of 2018. As a result, more adult children moved back to live with their parents or asked for financial help than in previous years. The share of 25- to 34-year-olds living in multigenerational households rose from 11% in 1980 to 15% in 2016. A recent survey finds that 41% of parents provide financial support to their 23- to 28-year-old offspring. Indeed, parents give 10% of their income on average to their adult children. Mimi wants to support her son Jeff if he looks for work but not otherwise. Jeff (unlike most young people) wants to try to find a job only if his mother will not support his life of indolence. Mimi and Jeff's payoff matrix is illustrated in the figure to the right. If Jeff and Mimi choose actions simultaneously, what are…

33. Consider an expected utility maximizer whose utility function is U(w), where w denotes wealth, expressed in dollars. Suppose that U(0) = 0 and U(1,000, 000) = 1. Further suppose that the individual is indifferent between having w = 200, 000 for sure or a gamble in which w = 0 with probability .4 and w = 1,000, 000 with probability .6. For this individual, U(200, 000) is %3D
