In 1938, major powers met in Munich to discuss Germany’s demands to annex part of Czechoslovakia. Let us think of the issue as the proportion of Czechoslovak territory given to Germany. Possible outcomes can be plotted on a single dimension, where 0 implies that Germany obtains no territory and 1 implies that Germany obtains all of Czechoslovakia: Most countries at Munich (“Allies” for short) wish to give nothing to Germany: their ideal point is 0, which gives them utility of 1. Their worst possible outcome is for Germany to take all of Czechoslovakia; hence an outcome of 1 gives them utility of 0. In between these extremes, the Allies could propose a compromise, X, which gives them utility of 1 – X. The question for the Allies is whether to propose a compromise or fight a war with Germany, which they are sure will ensue if they offer nothing. If they propose a compromise and Germany accepts, they get a payoff of 1 – X. If they fight, they win with probability p and lose with…

These friendly countries are the poor nation of Kalininburg (KB) and the richer, morally-ambiguous Coconut Republic (CR). Given the geographical proximity between the two buyers, a strict ban on cross-border sales was agreed with the Kalinian government. The respective demand functions (in million units) for both countries are: QKB=10-PKB QCR=14-0.5PCR The total cost (TC), in millions too, depends on the total amount of units produced Q = QKB + QCR and also includes 10 million of fixed costs. TC follows the expression: TC=10+2Q+Q2 /8 i. Does Leninslavia meet the conditions necessary to implement price discrimination? Explain.…

In 2012, an estimated 7.8 million Mexican-born immigrants were employed in the United States. a. If 60 percent of the Mexican-born immigrants remitted money to family members in Mexico in 2012, and if they each sent $100 per month, how much money did they remit in total? b. If, instead, 100 percent of the Mexican-born immigrants remitted money to family members in Mexico in 2012, and if they each sent $250 per month, how much money did they remit in total? c. The actual amount remitted to Mexico in 2012 by Mexicanborn immigrants living in the United States was about $23 billion. If we assume that 75 percent of the Mexicanborn immigrants remitted money to Mexico that year and if we further assume that each of those immigrants remitted an equal amount each month, how much per month did each of those immigrants have to remit to total $23 billion for the year?
