Please no written by hand Suppose all workers have the same preferences represented by U = (sqroot)w - 2x , where w is the wage and x is the proportion of the firm’s air that is composed of toxic pollutants. There are only two types of jobs in the economy, a clean job (x = 0) and a dirty job (x = 1). Let w0 be the wage paid by the clean job and w1 be the wage paid for doing the dirty job. If the clean job pays $16 per hour, what is the wage in dirty jobs? What is the compensating wage differential?
Suppose you were a benign government who wanted to improve Angela’s situation, but withoutsacrificing the aim of Pareto Efficiency. One policy advisor tells you that all you need to do to achievethis is to change Angela’s reservation option. Is this correct? Please explain with all steps the awnser of this question
Suppose you’re trying to get your friends to go todinner with you. Would it be wiser to frame thedecision as costing only $5 more than the foodthey’d make for themselves, or that it will cost$5 less than every other restaurant around town?
Heterogeneity in an endowment economy Suppose we have two typesof households: A and B. The utility maximization problem for a consumerof type i is max InCi,t+β ln Ci,t+1 Ct,Ct+1subject to Ci,t +Ci,t+1/ 1 + rt = Yi,t + Yi,t+1 / 1 + rt Note that the A and B households have the same discount rate and the same utility function. The only thing that is possibly different is their endowments. 1, Write down the Euler equation for households A and B.
The magazine Science 84 planned to announce a contest in which anyonecould submit a request for either $20 or $100. If fewer than 20% of the submissions requested $100, then everybody would receive what they requested. If 20% or more asked for $100, then everybody would get nothing. Although the magazine wound up not running the contest, because Lloyds of London was unwilling to insure against losses, we can still analyze what equilibrium would predict. Suppose 100,000 people might participate in the contest, and assume that payoffs are measured in money.a. Assume that every possible participant submits a request for either $20or $100. Find a Nash equilibrium.b. Now suppose that a request form comes only with the purchase of Science 84 and that the magazine costs $21.95. Then each person’s strategy set has three elements: do not buy the magazine, buy the magazine and submit a request for $20, and buy the magazine andsubmit a request for $100. Suppose zero value is attached to…
Willa and Lora are playing the dictator game. Let ww and wL be the amount of money Willa and Lora receive in the game, respectively. Willa plays the role of the dictator and must decide how to split $10. Suppose Willa’s preferences are given by U(ww,wL)=ww (second letters are subscripts). How much will Willa keep and how much will she give to Lora? Explain your answer in one or two sentences. Suppose instead that Willa’s preferences are given by U(ww,wL)=min(ww,wL). (second letters are subscripts) . How much will Willa keep and how much will she give to Lora? Explain your answer in one or two sentences.

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 $570,000. The following table states each person's willingness and ability to purchase a parcel.

Check all that apply. Ana Charles Dina Gilberto Juanita Yakov 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 price of $560,000.

In the United States, one of the largest welfare programs is the Supplemental NutritionAssistance Program (SNAP)1representing the second largest in-kind transfer programfor individuals in the US. From the abstract of the study we are told “[a] 1% increasein benefits per population raises grocery prices by a persistent 0.08%. A calibratedpartial-equilibrium model implies a marginal benefit dollar raises a recipient’s consumersurplus from groceries by $0.7, producer surplus by $0.5, and lowers each non-SNAPconsumer’s surplus by $0.05.” In other words, increasing the size of the in-kind transferleads to higher prices. This higher price results in a larger surplus for grocery stores anda lower consumer surplus for individuals not participating in SNAP. Those individualswho participate in SNAP can increase their overall consumer surplus as they haveaccess to more goods, despite the higher price. This result is estimated using thenearly 100% redemption of the SNAP benefits (i.e. assuming the…
Let q be the fraction of cars that are "peaches" and (1-q) be the fraction of cars that are "lemons." The most that a buyer will pay for a lemon is $1,500 and the most a buyerwill pay for a peach is $2,500. The lowest price the owner of a peach will accept is $2,000 and the lowest price that the owner of a lemon will accept is $1,000. What is thehighest percentage of cars for sale that can be lemons if any peaches are going to be offered for sale? Write your answer as an integer, without the % sign. For example, if theanswer is 10%, write "10".
