Ten workers work jointly on a project. All 10 workers are equally skilled. The total value of the output produced is $100 times the sum of the number of hours worked by all 10 workers. Each worker's utility is equal to his income minus the square of the number of hours he works. Each worker is selfish.

How much income will each worker get?

Tully is a graduating high school senior deciding between three alternative combinations of education-work options. He could start working immediately and earn $30,000 working in a burrito truck in period one. His salary would increase to $60,000 in period 2 as he would become chef, and then fall in period 3 to $50,000 as he would become too physically tired to work too much in the kitchen.

Upon obtaining his degree he would earn $80,000 as an economist for periods 2 and 3. The final option is for Tully to complete a doctorate degree in economics after finishing his undergrad degree.
