Amir operates a large lobster boat. The operating cost for the boat is $2,250 each day. At the end of each day, he sells allhis freshly caught lobster to either the local restaurant or the local grocery store with the following conditions:
.
The price per pound that the restaurant is willing to pay follows a triangular distribution with minimum value $1.50,
maximum value $5.50, and likeliest value $3.50.
• The price per pound that the grocery store is willing to pay is decreasing with more lobsters: $3.85 - $0.0005 *y,
where y is the total lobster amount sold in pounds.
• The amount of lobster that Amir catches in a single day follows a normal distribution with mean 1,500 pounds and
standard deviation sqrt(12,500) pounds.
Amir decides to sell a fixed percentage of lobster to the local restaurant and the rest to local grocery stores. Using either
math or simulation, can you help Amir determine what percentage he should choose in order to maximize his expected profit
in the long run?

- How prices allocate resources Suppose that there are three beachfront parcels of land available for sale in Astoria and six people who would each like to purchase one parcel. Assume that the parcels are essentially identical and that the minimum selling price of each is $745,000. The following table states each person's willingness and ability to purchase a parcel. Person Willingness and Ability to Purchase (Dollars) Andrew 900,000 Beth 810,000 Darnell 770,000 Eleanor 720,000 Jacques 690,000 Kyoko 680,000 Which of these people will buy one of the three beachfront parcels? Check all that apply. Andrew Beth Darnell Eleanor Jacques Kyoko Assume that the three beachfront parcels are sold to the people that you indicated in the previous section. Suppose that a few days after the last of those beachfront parcels is sold, another essentially identical beachfront parcel becomes available for sale at a minimum…Paul's firm produces the same good as Sal's firm. The total cost of producing qp units in Paul's firm is Cp( qp ) = 7.6 qp + 2.2. The total cost of producing qs units in Sal's firm is Cs( qs ) = 7.6 qs + 2.2. What is the efficiency loss if each person's firm produces half of a total of 595 units?You produce quesadillas (Q) with beef (B) and cheese (C). The production process is as so: Q = 60B - 1.5B2 + 50C - 1.5C2 The price of beef is $6 per box, and the price of cheese is $5 per box. The boxes are the same size and you only have room for 22 boxes in your freezer. How many boxes of cheese should be purchased?
- HighFlyer Airlines wants to build new airplanes with greatly increased cabin space. This will allow HighFlyer Airlines to give passengers more comfort and sell more tickets at a higher price. However, redesigning the cabin means rethinking many other elements of the airplane as well, like engine and luggage placement, and the most efficient shape of the plane for moving through the air. HighFlyer Airlines has developed a list of possible methods to increase cabin space, along with estimates of how these approaches would affect the planes operating costs and ticket sales. Based on these estimates, Table 13.5 shows the value of R, how much should the firm invest in R on top of the private return; that is, an R private return to HighFlyer Airlines would have a 9 social return. How much investment is socially optimal at the 6 interest rate?A U.S. emergency relief agency is considering sending a team of experts to another country to treat a severely contagious disease outbreak. Each team costs $100,000 for this one-week-long job. The agency estimates effectiveness as follows: 0 teams = 1000 deaths;1 team = 500 deaths;2 teams = 250 deaths,3 teams = 50 deaths;4 teams = 50 deaths Number of Teams Number of Deaths 0 1,000 1 500 2 250 3 50 4 50 If the Agency is considering sending 3 teams vs. 2 teams, what is the marginal cost (in dollar terms) of sending the third team? If saving a life is valued at $200,000 then the optimal number of teams to send is _____.The average cost of landscaping services for members of a condominium community is $350 per week. Assume that the quantity of landscaping services is perfectly correlated with the number of gardeners per week. Suppose the community consists of seven residents, each with the identical marginal benefit curve for landscaping services. The marginal benefit of the first gardener is $100 per resident. a) How many gardeners would be hired if their services were sold in a market to individual buyers at a price of $350 per week? Explain why the market arrangement is inefficient.
- The concert promoters of a heavy metal band, WeR2Loud, know that there are two types of concert - goers: die - hard fans and casual fans.

The direct market price for the medication that prevents yellow fever is $125. It would take him 2 hours to visit his doctor and get the prescription filled. The opportunity cost of his time is $25/hour. If he contracts yellow fever we assume that he will be sick and not able to work full days for two weeks. Under these conditions, let's assume he can work half days and has no vacation or sick time to use. His company will not pay him when he is sick and not working. His out of pocket expenses for medication, doctors’ visits, and lab tests to treat the yellow fever will be $500. His normal salary is $1,000 per week. John believes that his chance of getting yellow fever without preventative medicine is about 20%. His chance of getting yellow fever with the medication is 0%. There is no pain and suffering to be considered in this problem. What is the maximum price that John would pay…7 4.
