Exercise 3.13 —*** Challenging Question ✶✶✶. Two women, Anna and Bess, claim to be the legal owners of a diamond ring that - each claims - has great sentimental value. Neither of them can produce evidence of ownership and nobody else is staking a claim on the ring. Judge Sabio wants the ring to go to the legal owner, but he does not know which of the two women is in fact the legal owner. He decides to proceed as follows. First he announces a fine of $F > 0 and then asks Anna and Bess to play the following game. Move 1: Anna moves first. Either she gives up her claim to the ring (in which case Bess gets the ring, the game ends and nobody pays the fine) or she asserts her claim, in which case the game proceeds to Move 2. Move 2: Bess either accepts Anna's claim (in which case Anna gets the ring, the game ends and nobody pays the fine) or challenges her claim. In the latter case, Bess must put in a bid, call it B, and Anna must pay the fine of $F to Sabio. The game goes on to Move 3. Move…
DNFP7 (a) The President of ALS Society of America asks you to determine whether the level of ALS research in the U.S. is close to where it should be. You decide to estimate the demand and supply curves for ALS research, which you are thinking of as a pure public good. You find that there are two types of people in the U.S., each with a very different demand for autism research: Mother Teresas: P=$50-2Q Scrooges: P=$10-Q You also estimate that the marginal cost of producing each ALS study is $20. a. Sketch the Demand Curves for Mother Teresas and for Scrooges? • Label the x and y Intercepts. Mother Teresas: P-$50 when Q-0 Q-25 when P-0 Scrooges: P-$10 when Q-0 Q-10 when P-0

Suppose a hospital is planning about how many patients to treat over the next two years. One key factor the hospital needs to consider in its planning is that hospitals that see many patients in one year have lower costs of care in subsequent years. Let p be the price of hospital care, let 91 be the number of patients the hospital treats in year one, let q2 be the number of patients the hospital treats in year two, and let c₁ and c₂ be the hospital's per-patient cost in years one and two. The hospital's profits over the two year period are: II = (pic₁)91 + (p2 - c2)92 The hospital takes p1 and p2 as fixed and they choose q1 and q2 to maximize profits, II. (1) 1. Suppose, as a warm up exercise, that there is no learning by doing, and that the unit cost functions are as follows: c₁ = 21 and c2 = 92. Is the cost of caring for patients increasing or decreasing in the number of patients seen? Derive the supply function in periods one and two for the hospital. [Hint: Substitute the unit cost…
