Suppose the two countries can trade shares in the ownership of their perspective assets. Further assume that a Home owner owns a 25 percent share in Foreign land. He will receive 25 percent share in Foreign land and thus receives 25 percent of the annual Foreign kiwi fruit harvest. Further assume also that a Foreign owner of a 25 percent share in Home land is permitted. In this case, a Foreigner is entitled to 25 percent of the Home harvest. The expected value of kiwi fruit for each investor is O a. 100 Оь. 25 О с. 75 O d. 50 O e. 125

Suppose we are considering a HO model setting, where countries have not yet opened up to trade. Two goods are produced exclusively by domestic labor supplies, tires and vehicle frames. Suppose a tire is labor-intensive in production whereas constructing vehicle frames is a capital intensive task that more frequently features automated machinery. Home and foreign maintain the following capital (K) and labor (L) endowments. Factor L K Home 1120 575 Foreign 1680 950 Suppose these countries transition into a free trade scenario. Using the previous details about both countries, perform the following tasks. (i) Sketch a world relative price, CPC line, through your bundle such that it passes through the PPF (it will have no tangency to PPF). (ii) Using this CPC line, with its fixed slope, shift the line until it is perfectly tangent with the indifference curve. Update your sketch with this newly labeled CPC. (iii) Correctly label the equilibria points at which Home consumes and produces. (iv)…
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an unprecedented increase in savings in many countries around the world. In the EU, the savings rate of households has jumped from 12.5% to 17%. In 2008-2009, it had moved from 12.5% to 14% (Dossche and Zlatanos 2020). Even if the source of 2020 surge in savings is different from the one of 2008, it is obvious that this increase does not result in more investment and growth. QUESTION: 1. With reference to the paradox of thrift discuss the appropriate approach by the government to get the economy out of economic downturn swiftly
Clancy has difficulty finding parking in his neighborhood and, thus, is considering the gamble of illegally parking on the sidewalk because of the opportunity cost of the time he spends searching for parking. On any given day, Clancy knows he may or may not get a ticket, but he also expects that if he were to do it every day, the average amount he would pay for parking tickets should converge to the expected value. If the expected value is positive, then in the long run, it will be optimal for him to park on the sidewalk and occasionally pay the tickets in exchange for the benefits of not searching for parking. Suppose that Clancy knows that the fine for parking this way is $100, and his opportunity cost (OC) of searching for parking is $20 per day. That is, if he parks on the sidewalk and does not get a ticket, he gets a positive payoff worth $20; if he does get a ticket, he ends up with a payoff of
127.) Suppose Robinson and Crusoe are stranded on a desert island in the Pacific Ocean and discover a large amount of currency from a previous shipwreck. Friday catches 20 fish and sells them to Robinson Crusoe for $40 apiece. Robinson Crusoe uses the fish he purchased from Friday to make 40 gallons of fish oil, which he sells to Friday for $20 per gallon. If the transactions above are the only ones that take place in 2002, what is the GDP of the island in 2002? $0 $800 $1600 $2400
The blue curve on the following graph shows the tradeoff between security and tourism; that is, combinations of security and tourism above the blue curve are not possible, and those on or below the curve are possible. The vertical axis measures security, defined as the probability that a terrorist is intercepted before entering the country. The horizontal axis measures the number of yearly visitors to the United States, in millions. Suppose that before 9/11, there were 55 million visitors per year, and the probability of intercepting any particular terrorist at customs and immigration was 10%, as indicated by the purple point (diamond symbol). After the 9/11 attacks, a debate is held in Congress. Members of both parties agree that security measures need to be improved. However, there is some disagreement as to how much additional security is needed. Suppose the first bill that is introduced mandates that security be improved so that the probability of catching a terrorist at the border…
Time remaining: 01 :53 :32 Economics A dealer decides to sell an antique automobile by means of an English auction with a reservation price of $900. There are two bidders. The dealer believes that there are only three possible values, $7,200, $3,600, and $900, that each bidder’s willingness to pay might take. Each bidder has a probability of 1/3 of having each of these willingnesses to pay, and the probabilities for each of the two bidders are independent of the other’s valuation. Assuming that the two bidders bid rationally and do not collude, the dealer’s expected revenue from selling the car is approximately Group of answer choices $3,600. $2,500. $3,900. $5,400. $7,200.
