Suppose U.S. drivers purchased $50 billion of ExxonMobil-produced gasoline during a recent year, with one-half purchased directly from ExxonMobil-owned gas stations and one-half from independent (or third-party) gas stations. Suppose further that ExxonMobil purchased the oil (which it refined into gasoline) from foreign producers for $20billion and that it receives 60 percent of the sales revenue that independent stations generate from selling ExxonMobil gasoline. In this case, the value added by ExxonMobil to U.S. GDP is $__billion.

QUESTION 1An individual lives for two periods and decides how much to consume in each period.- In the first period his consumption equals C1 and his income Y1 = 200- In the second period his consumption equals C2 and his income Y2 = 100He can save or borrow money in the first period to finance his consumption in the second period.The interest rate he gets in case he saves or has to pay in case he borrows money equals 7%.Determine the budget constraint of this individual. C2 = −0.935·C1 +314C2 =−1.07·C1 +314C2 =−0.8·C1 +314C2 =−1.08·C1 +314 QUESTION 2The total production of a good y is determined by the production function y = 3L2/3K1/3, where L is labour input and K capital input.The reward (factor prices) for labour and capital are, l = 27 en r = 2, respectively.The producer needs to produce 9000 units of good y.How much units of labour will he hire if he wants to miminize his total costs? 1587,4839,953000515,23 QUESTION 3A good is traded on a perfectly competitive…

Assume that GBP|USD = 2.00 (rate chosen for math ease). After the passage of a significant tax increase in the United States, the United States stock market is expected to drop significantly over the next month while the British stock market is expected to show steady growth. As a result which of following is most likely in a graph of the currency market with GBP per USD (original equilibrium is USD|GPB = 0.50) on the vertical axis (quantity of USD on horizontal axis)? Drawing a diagram would be useful. A. The supply curve would shift left and the new price would be greater than 0.50. B. The supply curve would shift right and the new price would be greater than 0.50. C. The supply curve would shift left and the new price would be less than 0.50. D. The supply curve would shift right and the new price would be less than 0.50.

Suppose an economy produces steel, wheat, and oil. The steel industry produces $100,000 inrevenue, spends $4,000 on oil, $10,000 on wheat, pays workers $80,000. The wheat industryproduces $150,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on oil, $10,000 on steel, and pays workers$90,000. The oil industry produces $200,000 in revenue, spends $40,000 on wheat, $30,000 onsteel, and pays workers $100,000. There is no government. There are neither exports norimports, and none of the industries accumulate or decumulate inventories. Output not sold toother sectors is sold as final goods Q A government is introduced. First consider this policy: the government taxes oilproducers $10,000, and distributes this revenue to workers. Recalculate GDP using theincome approach.
