The management of Choices Inc. can pay bonuses for customer service staff based on feedback scores or based on reversed cancellations. Good feedback and reversed cancellations both generate $12,000 in additional profit for the company. A hard-working employab has a 75% chance of getting a positive score, but only a 50% chance of reversing a cancellation. If the employee fails to put in full effort, then the likelihood of a positive score or a reversed cancellation is, in both cases, 25%. Assume an employee's utility function for income w is u(w) sqrt(w), and the effort cost from working hard (in utility units) is 10. With a base wage of 10,000, how much more profitable is Choices Inc. with bonuses based on feedback, instead of reversed cancellations? (L.e. what is the difference in profit if the manager always offers the smallest bonus that will induce the employee to work hard?) $3,000 O$4,500 $9,000 $12,000

A competitive industry has production processes that generate pollution. ok with studies carried out on the affected population, the marginal costs associated with contamination are constant and CU500. for each unit of the good produced. these costs are associated with lost workdays, illness treatment costs, and the nuisance generated in the population. Currently the production level of the industry is 250 units and the market price is 1,500 (MU/unit). Market studies carried out by companies estimate that if the price rises At 1,800 (mu/unit) the quantity demanded would fall to 200 units and the marginal cost of the production of each company in this new production level is 1,300 (m.u./unit). Assume linearity in market demand and in the marginal costs of production of the companies Graph to justify your answers.
