- Now bids come from a triangular distribution where a = 2,000,000, b = 6,000,000, and c = 5,000,000. What is the optimal bid?Suppose there are 11 buyers and 11 sellers, each willing to buy or sell one unit of a good, with values {$14, $13, $12, $11, $10, $9, $8, $7, $6, $5, $4,}. Assume no transaction costs and a competitive market. At the optimal bid, ask spread, what is the total profit that the market maker makes? $8 $12 $18 $20Suppose that Fiona likes cashews better than almonds and likes almonds better than walnuts. She likes pecans equally well as hazelnuts and prefers hazelnuts to almonds.Can we characterize Fiona’s preferences of being “complete”? Can we characterize them of being “transitive”? Justify your answer
- 12 In a survey, 190 consumers were asked about their buying preferences concerning a product that is sold in the market under three labels. The results were as follows. 13 buy only those sold under label A.25 buy only those sold under label B.27 buy only those sold under label C.15 buy only those sold under labels A and B.10 buy only those sold under labels A and C.12 buy only those sold under labels B and C.10 buy the product sold under all three labels. How many of the consumers surveyed buy the product sold under (a) At least one of the three labels? consumers(b) Labels A and B but not C? consumers(c) Label A? consumers(d) None of these labels? consumersIn a study of the domestic market share of the three major automobile manufacturers A, B, and C in a certain country, it was found that their current market shares were 65%, 10%, and 25%, respectively. Furthermore, it was found that of the customers who bought a car manufactured by A, 75% would again buy a car manufactured by A, 15% would buy a car manufactured by B, and 10% would buy a car manufactured by C. Of the customers who bought a car manufactured by B, 90% would again buy a car manufactured by B, whereas 5% each would buy cars manufactured by A and C. Finally, of the customers who bought a car manufactured by C, 85% would again buy a car manufactured by C, 5% would buy a car manufactured by A, and 10% would buy a car manufactured by B. Assuming that these sentiments reflect the buying habits of customers in the future, determine the market share that will be held by each manufacturer after the next two model years.

- Consider the market depicted in the graph and assume the government imposes a price floor of P2. At P2, 150 units of the good are supplied (wish to be sold) and 50 units of the good are demanded (wish to be bought). Choose the correct ones: Without an enforcement mechanism, the effect of a binding price floor will be negligible because it will simply be ignored because buyers and sellers enrich themselves by trading below the floor price. With an enforcement mechanism, the effect of a binding price floor may still be negligible if the enforcement mechanism is easy to evade or doesn't impose a significant penalty for selling below the price floor.

He proposed tax reductions as a means of stimulating the economy and, as a result, increase tax revenues. In the mid 1990’s Time magazine reported that 30% of the US Congress supported a tax cut as a means of stimulating the economy and increasing tax revenues. Suppose at that time 5 members of congress were randomly selected for an interview and asked whether they supported a tax cut to stimulate the economy. 1.2) Find the probability that at least three of the five members of congress who were interviewed were in favour of a tax cut (rounded off to four decimals).
