Use Figure 1 below to answer questions 22-24. Suppose there are two jurisdictions, A and B.The graphic above shows the market for capital in jurisdiction A. Initially, equilibrium is at pointe on the graph, with equilibrium return Ro and equilibrium quantity of capital in jurisdiction A ofKo. Suppose a property tax, viewed as a tax on capital, is introduced into jurisdiction A at a rateof eg (on the graph) but that property remains untaxed in jurisdiction B.Figure 1RRAabeRRRoсRBdReDeKAKoK22.

There are a range of property rights regimes that are possible in agriculture. These range from a landowner who pays fixed wages to her farm worker and keeps all profits from working the land, all the way to a tenant who pays a fixed rental fee to the landowner and keeps all profits from working the land. Somewhere in the middle is a sharecropping arrangement where the landowner and tenant share the revenues from selling their crops (normally in equal proportion). Suppose the agricultural output of a plot of land depends on the inputs y of a landowner and the inputs x of a tenant. Output is given by Q = A[logx + logy] , where A = 10. The price received for the goods is p = 1, the cost of a unit of effort to the tenant is w = 1 and the cost to the landowner of a unit of her inputs is r = 2. Question:Suppose the landowner and the tenant share output in equal proportions. What will be the levels of x and y? What is total output?
You guys did the first table for me. I just completed the second. Can you just check my work on the second table for me. You dont need to take the time to write it out like you did for the first one just a simple correct or not correct would be great and if you can show me what I did wrong. Thanks

Suppose that a product is produced in three factories X, Y and Z. It is known that factory X produces thrice as many items as factory Y, and that factories Y and Z produce the same number of items. Assume that it is known that 3 per cent of the itenis produced by each of the factories X and Z are defective while 5 per cent of those manufactured by factory Y are defective. All the items produced in the three factories are stocked, and an item of product is selected at random. (i) What is the probability that this item is defective? (ii) If an item selected at random is found to be defective, what is the probability that it was produced by factory X, Y and Z respectively?
1. Given the input-coefficient matrix for a hypothetical economy made up of only 0.1 0.5 two (2) industries as A = 0.3 0.2 provide an economic interpretation for each of the elements in matrix A. 2. Suppose there are only two industries in an economy, producing two outputs (1 and 2). To produce one monetary unit worth of output 1, it requires 0.5 monetary units of output 1 and 0.4 monetary units of output 2. Similarly, to produce one monetary unit of output 2, it requires 0.3 and 0.6 monetary units of outputs 1 and 2 respectively. Write out the matrix of the technical coefficients.

The New York City Council is ready to vote on two billsthat authorize the construction of new roads in Manhattanand Brooklyn. If the two boroughs join forces, they can passboth bills, but neither borough by itself has enough powerto pass a bill. If a bill is passed, then it will cost the taxpayersof each borough $1 million, but if roads are built in aborough, the benefits to the borough are estimated to be $10million. The council votes on both bills simultaneously, andeach councilperson must vote on the bills without knowinghow anybody else will vote. Assuming that each boroughsupports its own bill, determine whether this game has anyequilibrium points. Is this game analogous to the Prisoner’sDilemma? Explain why or why not.
The following graph shows the supply of and demand for capital in a market over the last year. You can see that the demand for capital has increased over the last year (the demand curve shifted to the right). Place the black X at the equilibrium interest rate and the quantity of capital INTEREST RATE, r (% Equilibrium D2 18 16 D1 14 12 10 8 S 2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 CAPITAL (Billions of dollars) Clear All The market interest rate increased by 2.0%, and the amount of capital borrowed billion. Which of the following factors could be responsible for the change in demand shown in the graph? New technological advances opened up more production opportunities for businesses. Households began saving a greater percentage of their income. Expected inflation decreased. The Federal Reserve (the Fed) decided to relax its monetary policy and expanded the money supply. y 20 co

Suppose Walmart has announced plans to seek approval from the planning commission of a small town to build a new store. Develop alist of the main arguments, pro and con, that could be presented at a public hearing on the matter by members of each of these groups: 1. Owners of small businesses located nearby.2. Town residents, and residents of nearby towns. How might a Walmart representative respond to the negative criticisms that might be brought up, and what other benefits could the representative offer the planning board to bolster Walmart’s case for gaining the board’s approval?
Regime 2: Lawyer's paradise Suppose that a law is passed that makes the airport liable for all damages to the developer's property values. If the airport flies X planes and the developer builds Y houses, the damages, as reflected in developer's profit function, is XY. With this new law, the airports profits after it has paid damages will be 36X-X2-XY. The developer's profits including the amount he receives in payment of damages will be 48Y-Y2-XY+XY = 48Y- Y² Under this regime, what is the umber of houses that maximises the developer's profits? Y Compute the developer's profits. TD If YY, what is the number of planes per day that maximises profits for the airport? X = Compute the airport's profits. ΠΑ = Regime 3: Merger Suppose that the housing developer purchases the airport. To maximise the sum of profits, how many houses should the developer build and how many planes should the developer let land? Yo Compute the total profits. Tmerged
