Vasya can photocopy 10 pages from a book or type 2 pages of handwritten text in 10 minutes. Petya can photocopy 40 pages from a book or type 3 pages of handwritten text in 10 minutes. Suppose also that both tasks are equally enjoyable to both of them. Given the information, if Vasya takes a course and learns how to type 3 pages in 10 minutes and can still photocopy 10 pages in 10 minutes, then: Petya will photocopy 5 pages and type 1 page, and Vasya will photocopy 20 pages and type 2 pages. Vasya will photocopy 5 pages and type 1 page, and Petya will photocopy 20 pages and type 2 pages. (c) They will not know what to do since not enough information is provided. (D) Petya will do all the typing and Vasya will do all of the photocopying. (E) Petya will do all the photocopying and Vasya will do all the typing.

Krisha can pick 4 pounds of coffee beans in an hour or gather 2 pounds of nuts. Tom can pick 2 pounds of coffee beans in an hour or gather 4 pounds of nuts. Each works 6 hours per day. Together, what is the maximum number of pounds of coffee beans the two can pick in a day? What is the maximum number of pounds of nuts the two can gather in a day? Maximum amount of coffee beans pounds per day Maximum amount of nuts pounds per day Now suppose Krisha and Tom were gathering the maximum number of pounds of nuts when they decided that they would like to begin picking 8 pounds of coffee beans per day. Who would pick the coffee beans? How many pounds of nuts would they still be able to gather? Would it be possible for Krisha and Tom in total to gather 26 pounds of nuts and pick 20 pounds of coffee beans each day? If so, how much of each good should each person pick? The combination of 30 pounds of coffee beans and 12 pounds of nuts per day is show Krisha and Tom's combined daily PPC.

3. Suppose that you and your roommate Pat are planning a Valentine’s Day party at your apartment. Before you have the party you have to clean your apartment and earn $100 for food and drinks. Suppose that, working alone, either you or Pat could clean the apartment in two days. Working together you could both clean the apartment in one day. You can make $25 a day working at the dining hall, and Pat can make $50 a day as a video game instructor. According to the principle of comparative advantage, what is the most efficient way of throwing the party? Explain. How could you make an arrangement that benefits both of you?

Suppose that Verania and Josimar are roommates that need to complete some household chores. Vacuuming and washing dishes need to be done. They know from the last time they did these chores that it takes Verania 2 hours to vacuum and 1 hour to wash dishes. It takes Josimar 3 hours to vacuum and 2 hours to wash dishes. Josimar says it does not matter which task each of them performs because Verania is faster at both tasks. Josimar’s reasoning a. is wrong. Because Verania has a comparative advantage in washing dishes, she should wash dishes, and Josimar should vacuum. b. is correct. Because Verania is faster at both tasks, there is no benefit in each volunteer specializing in one task or the other. c. is wrong. Because Verania has an absolute advantage in both tasks, she should perform both tasks herself. d. is wrong. Because Josimar has a comparative advantage in washing dishes, he should wash dishes, and Verania should vacuum.

Ronald is an Economics students who likes to spend his leisure time of sixty hours a month doingone of two activities: watching movies at Dendy Cinemas Newtown (x), and indoor-climbing(y). A trip to the movies takes 3 hours, and each visit to the climbing gym lasts 5 hours.Further, suppose that Ronald has a fixed monthly monetary budget to spend on leisure activities. He currently exhausts this entire budget by watching two movies and visiting the climbinggym fifteen times. With this monthly budget, he would also have been able to afford exactlyseven movies and six visits to the climbing gym.Assume that both goods are perfectly divisible.(b) Show, using algebra, that Ronald’s two budget lines intersect at the bundle (x, y) =(5.5, 8.7).
Matt and Lin are two producers and consumers for lamps and beds. Each of them works 40 hours in a week. Hours required for Matt to produce one unit of lamps or beds are 1 hours or 10 hours, respectively. Hours required for Lin to produce one unit of lamps or beds are 2 hours or 8 hours, respectively. Assuming their PPFs are straight lines. Calculate the correct options that complete the following statements on Matt's PPF. A) If Matt produces only lamps, they can produce ? unit(s) of lamps. If Matt produces only beds, they can produce ? unit(s) of beds B) Calculate the correct options that complete the following statements on Lin's PPF. If Lin produces only lamps, they can produce unit(s) of lamps. If Lin produces only beds, they can produce unit(s) of beds. C) What is the marginal opportunity cost of producing an extra unit of lamps for Matt? An extra unit of lamps costs unit(s) of beds.

Q35 Statement for Q36-Q41 Kayla and Josel produce food and luxury goods. Kayla has 10 hours; it takes her 1 hour to produce 1 unit of food and 2 hours to produce 1 unit of luxury goods. Josel has 20 hours; for the first 8 hours of producing food, it takes him 2 hours to produce 1 unit of food. Then, beyond 8 hours, Josel is less productive and it takes him 4 hours to produce 1 additional unit of food. It takes Josel 2 hours to produce 1 unit of luxury goods no matter how many hours are allocated into the production of luxury goods. MAKE SURE YOU REFER TO THE ABOVE STATEMENT FOR QUESTIONS 36-41 Save Answer Q36 Suppose that Kayla and Josel trade only with each other, and agree to the following terms of trade: 2 units of food in exchange for 3 units of luxury goods. What is the relative price of 1 unit of food in terms of units of luxury goods? O A. 2/3. O B. 3/2. O C. 2/3 if within the first 8 hours of producing food for Josel, and 3/2 otherwise. O D. 3/2 if within the first 8 hours of…
A company that produces brass hardware for doors has the ability to produce up to 6,500 hinges per week but then is unable to produce doorknobs. Or it can produce up to 650 doorknobs per week but then is unable to produce any hinges. In the graph below, use the straight-line tool to draw the company's production possibilities frontier, where the quantities are per week (do not use the point tool to plot endpoints). Then use the point tool to plot a point to indicate the company's maximum output where it is producing exactly three times as many hinges as doorknobs.

a) The s utility function is given as follows: U(z,y) = x+y The budget-constrained of 8 in spending money on the watching cricket match and movies as follows: 845x + 36y= 324 Now the utility function for finding the optimal bundle of preferences The bundle of a and y is under budget Now the Bundle of (x, y) is (2, 2) 45(2) 36(1) 45x + 36y= 324 36(2) 324 324 162 < 324 The MRS is one means to get an additional unit of zone unit of y will sacrifice and to get one additional unit of y, one unit of z will sacrifice. The budget line explain if (x, y) is (1, 1) 45(1) then = 324 $81 < 324 Now the Bundle of (x, y) is (3, 3) 90+72 Now the Bundle of (x, y) is (4,4) 45x+36y 324 45(3) 36(3) 324 135+108 324 243 < 324 = U(x, y) = x+y dU 45x + 36y= 324 45(4) 36(4) 324 180+144 324 324 324 = 1 dz MU2=1 du dy MUy=1 MRS MUT Pz MUY Py MRS=1 =1 MU MUy So the optimal bundle for S is 4 unit of z and 4 unit of y that is (4,4).
