Suppose that a simple economy produces only four goods andservices: shoes, DVDs, tomatoes, and ketchup. Assume one half of the tomatoes are used inmaking the ketchup and the other half of the tomatoes are purchased by households. Usingthe information in the above table, nominal GDP for this simple economy equalsA) $83.00.B) $5,800.C) $7,400.D) $6,400.

To calculate the nominal GDP for this simple economy, we need to consider the value of each product…

1. Hugo decides to buy his Christmas gifts on Black Friday. To simplify his life, he is giving his 10 closest friends scarves for Christmas and everyone else Christmas cards. Hugo is willing to spend $200 on the 10 scarves. When he arrives at Macy’s at 5:00 A.M. on Black Friday, he discovers that scarves are on sale for $12 each. Hugo buys 10 scarves and uses the remaining $80 to buy himself a some clothes. 1.a. How much consumer surplus did Hugo receive from the tenth scarf he purchased? 2. Now suppose the manager at Macy’s was hoping to sell all 100 scarves Macy's had in inventory. She decided to put the scarves on sale for $10, but an employee accidentally listed the sales price at $12.

If we have money, we buy goods and services to satisfy our needs. In economics, thesatisfaction that we get from the consumption of goods and services is called utility. Usea utility graph to explain what happen to the utility when you keep on increasing thenumber of units consumed. Also explain what happens to the utility when you keep onincreasing the number of units consumed. Also explain what happens to the additionalutility (i.e. additional satisfaction) when you increase your consumption by one unit
John is a School of Agriculture graduate and consumes 2 goods: Yoghurt and Bread. Akua also earns a typical student income from the parents, GHS 400 a month. She can either spend it all on Yoghurts and get 50, or she can spend it all on Bread and get 200 loaves. a. Given this information, construct the equation for John’s Budget Line. b. John gets a research grant and her income increases to GHS 800 per month. What is the new equation of her budget line? What if income stays constant at GHS 400 and the price of Yoghurts increase to GHS10? c. Assume that prices are the same as used in part a. If the marginal utility of a Yoghurt is 20, what is the marginal utility of Bread if she is maximizing her utility?
Use the graph to answer the following: 1. At the optimal consumption point, approximately how many armadillos will be consumed? 2. Approximately how many apricots will be consumed? 3. If this consumer spent all his income on armadillos, how many armadillos could he buy? 4. If his income decreased, what would it look like? Draw the appropriate shift on the graph.
This question concerns a person in an economy in which they only consumetwo commodities, coffee and cake. This person always consumes thesecommodities together in a fixed ratio; whenever they drink a cup of coffee, theyeat a single cake.This person has a budget of £99 to spend on coffee and cake. a. Price of coffee is £2 and the price of a cake is £1. ii. Price of coffee is £8 and the price of a cake is £1 iii. Price of coffee is £10 and the price of a cake is £1. b. Using the information from part a, draw an individual demand curve for coffee for this person. Briefly explain how you used the information frompart a to create the demand curve. c. Assume the price of coffee is £2 and the price of a cake is £1. This personnow decides to limit their consumption of coffee to one cup of coffee a dayand one cake a day. Discuss how this decision to limit their consumptioncontradicts the axioms of behaviour for consumption
22. Suppose a little girl likes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with exactly 2T of jelly and 1T of peanut butter. Suppose further that her mom agrees to make sandwiches to those exact specifications and the price of peanut butter is $.25/T and the price of jelly is S.10/T. If she has $1.80 to spend on peanut butter and jelly ingredients (ignore the bread) in a week, how many sandwiches will she make? a. 1 b. 2 c. 4 d. S ANSWED-.

What is her S opportunity cost of purchasing a pie? ___ 4.)

5. Vera is an impoverished graduate student who has only $100 a month to spend on food. She has read in a government publication that she can assure an adequate diet by eating only peanut butter and carrots in the Öxed ratio of 2 pounds of peanut butter to 1 pound of carrots, so she decides to limit her diet to that regime. a) If peanut butter costs $4 per pound and carrots cost $2 per pound, how much can she eat during the month? b) Suppose peanut butter costs rise to $5 because of peanut subsidied introduced by a politically sensitive government. By how much will Vera have to reduce her food purchases? c) How much in food stamp aid would the government have to give Vera to compensate for the e§ects of peanut subsidy? d) Explain why Veraís preferences are of a very special type here. How would you graph them?
please urgent EXERCISE 2 Ravi has £21 to spend on pastries and biscuits. If he spends all the money on pastries, he can afford 15 pastries. The slope of Ravi’s budget line (assuming his pastries consumption is measured on the horizontal axis and his biscuits consumption is measured on the vertical axis) is -3.5 (3.5 in absolute terms). a) Calculate the price of a pastry and the price of a biscuit. Write down Ravi’s budget equation and draw the corresponding budget line. Mark the consumption bundle mentioned above. In your graph, clearly label the axes, the budget line, and calculate the coordinates of the points of intersection of the budget line with each axis. Interpret each of those points. b) Discuss how Ravi’s budget set would change if his budget doubles. Show the relevant changes graphically. How could the price of a pastry increase so that Ravi could still afford to buy 15 pastries? c) Discuss how Ravi’s budget constraint would change if the government imposed a tax of £0.50…
