Mega Partner is selling two products Marker(m) and Eraser(e) and their budget is given with thefollowing equation: 15Qe+ 30Qm= 3000. Now answer the following questions. I. Draw the budget line for Mega PartnerII. What would be the highest amount spend on Marker with the existing budgetIII. If Total budget increases to 4500 what would be the new budget line (use diagram)IV. If Price of the Marker becomes 15, how this changes the existing budget line keeping allthe values remain same.
Jack's marginal utility of consumption is MUc = L - 6, and the marginal utility of leisure is MUL=C-40. Jack does not have any nonlabor income, i.e., V = 0. Jack faces a $48 an hour wage rate. Jack's total number of hours available per week is 150. What is Jack's optimal choice of consumption? (calculate to 2 decimal places)
(a) Dividing MUX and MUY by their respective prices compute the weighted marginal utility or marginal utility of money expenditure and draw up Table 2 showing diminishing returns for the consumption of the 6 units? (b) Briefly state what you can infer on this equation; MUX/PX = MUY/PY as far as equi marginal principle and managerial economics is concerned? C)Given that MUX/PX and MUY/PY are equal to 6 when 5 units of X and 3 units of Y are purchased. By purchasing these combinations of X and Y, calculate the amount the consumer will spend and derive the maximum satisfaction from combination of these units. (d) Applying the above principle illustrate in terms of a figure, and draw marginal utility curves for goods X and Y. You need to use marginal utility and price i.e. Marginal utility per Kwacha spent on good X = MUX/PX, and that of Y = MUY/PY. The MUX/PX curve should be shown in figure (a) while the MUY/PY curve should be shown in Fig (b). Please do not draw negative…

2. A small college is trying to predict enrolment for the next academic year. Thevice president for business states that enrolment has tended to follow apattern described by E = 18,000 – 0.5P, where E denotes total enrolment andP is yearly tuition.a) If the school sets tuition at €20,000, how many students can it expect to enrol?b) If the school wants to maximize total tuition revenue, what tuition should itcharge?c) As the vice president for business, what tuition would you recommend? Explainbriefly.d) Due to a strong post-COVID-19 recovery, the income conditions in the regionimprove substantially. Explain in one sentence how this could affect the college’senrolment pattern and the enrolment level maximizing its tuition revenue.
Ewa spends all her 600 PLN bonus on the purchase of sweets and cosmetics. Draw the Ewa's budget line, knowing that her favorite sweets cost PLN 10 per pack and the price of cosmetics is PLN 25. •How will Ewa's situation be affected by the PLN 50 bonus increase? •What will happen if the price of cosmetics increases to PLN 30? •How, from the point of view of initial situation, we will evaluate the following quantitative combinations: –30 packages of sweets and 15 cosmetics –60 packages of sweets and 24 cosmetics –20 packages of sweets and 10 cosmetics –10 packages of sweets and 15 cosmetics
Suppose a project needs to hire 50 electricians. At the initial wage of 60K/year (including benefits) 480 are currently employed in the local area and 20 are estimated to be unemployed. The MEBT is 0.2. After electricians are hired for the project, the local wage increases to 65K/year and the number employed locally increases to 510. Estimate the opportunity cost of hiring the workers. Draw a diagram to illustrate. Explain, and defend any assumptions you make.
