Suppose the fictional country of Everglades produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production possibilities frontier for millet, an agricultural good, and telephoto lenses, a capital good. Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a technological advance in medicine that allows workers to live longer and have extended careers. Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points will snap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. ?

(a). An agricultural engineer must decide what type of tillage method to adopt for optimum soil structire for seedbed and root bed, manage plant residue and reduce soil erosion. If he uses primary tillage type, has 80% chance for optimum soil performance. If he uses secondary tillage type, he has 50% chance for optimum soil performance. If he uses cultivation tillage type, he has 30% chance for optimum soil performance. According to the soil condition obtained from preliminary investigation, there are only 20%, 50% and 30% chances of applying primary, secondary and cultivation tillage operations on the land, respectively. If the engineer decides to use all three tillage types on the land, determine the chance for optimum soil structure for seedbed and root bed preparation. Also, determine the chance of using primary tillage type alone when the soil performance was optimum. he
An entrepreneur has a venture that will make either $100M or $0. The chance that this venture will make $100M depends on the effort level expended by the entrepreneur: If she tries hard, the chance of the $100M outcome is 0.2. If she does not try hard, the chance of this outcome is 0.05. This entrepreneur is risk averse, with utility function. - disutility of effort, where the disutility of effort is O if the entrepreneur does not try hard and 1000 if she does. (a) Assuming this entrepreneur bears all the risk of this venture, will she try hard or not? What will be her expected utility, net of the disutility of effort (if any)? (b) A risk-neutral venture capitalist is prepared to support this venture. Risk-neutrality means that the venture capitalist cares only about expected profit (average weighted by probabilities of net gains). Specifically, the venture capitalist will pay the entrepreneur a base amount B up front, in return for which the venture capitalist will retain X out of the…
