Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
From the given table, a graph for a person N’s sandwiches is presented. S and D represent the supply and
Now, the graph is plotted according to the table given in the question,
As the price will drop to $6.25, the quantity demanded will rise to 4.5, and the quantity supply will fall to 4.5. Therefore, the price at which quantity demanded equalizes quantity demanded is the equilibrium price which is $6.25 in this case.
Thus, the price of sandwich is $6.25.

Each villager can use this money either to buy a government bond that pays 18 percent interest per year or to buy a year-old llama, send it onto the commons to graze, and sell it after 1 year. The price the villager gets for the 2-year-old llama depends on the quality of the fleece It grows while grazing on the commons. That in turn depends on the animal's access to grazing, which depends on the number of llamas sent to the commons, as shown in the following table: Number of 11amas on the commons Price per 2- year-old 11ama ($) 1 125 2 119 3 116 4 113 5 6 111 109 The villagers make their investment decisions one after another, and their decisions are public. a.
