Suppose a particular population has two kinds of health risks, high and low. Let the expected annual health care costs for the high risk be $10,000, and for the low risk, half that. If there are twice as many low risk as high risk individuals, and if the one insurer’s administrative load is 20%, what would the community rated premium be if everyone is compelled to and able to buy health insurance? Note: administrative load can be construed as the amount that the insurer has in costs to run the plans above and beyond the "health care costs."
assume there are two types of workers, low- and high-ability, and let 0 = 0.25 be the proportion of high-ability workers in the population. Assume their marginal productivity and, therefore, their wages are wh = $20 and wl = $16, and that both types can use college education to signal high ability. The cost of college education for low-ability workers is cl = $5 whereas the cost for high-ability workers is ch = $2. How much do firms pay to each worker type when they cannot differentiate them? (a) wh = $20 and wl = $16 (b) wh = $2 and wl = $5 (c) w = $17 (d) w = $18

Susan was frustrated. As chair of the school of nursing at the local university, she wantedher students to get used to using electronic health records. Ideally, these students wouldleave her program and be able to use their employer’s EHR system without any additionalorientation. Other campus health profession leaders had similar concerns. However, thefaculty found that within a 100-mile radius of the university, the area’s many hospitals andthree main healthcare systems all used different EHR vendors.The local healthcare systems promoted electronic health information. They were allconcerned about the safety and security of the records and the needs of their patients. Theywere also aware of the national push for system to integrate EHRs. In reality, however, therecords housed in the variety of systems could not be shared. The software was toodisconnected and dissimilar.Susan wondered what her next step should be. Which system should she adopt, ifany? How could she help move these…

D. If TB > TA then Type B will get more education, otherwise Type A will definitely getmore education. Discuss.E. Assume that the mean wage in Industry 1 is greater than the mean wage in Industry 2,but the variance of wages in Industry 1 is much larger than that in Industry 2. Assumealso that if you get an education you must work in Industry 1(i.e., the human capitalaccumulated is industry specific). What effect(s) might that have on the choices ofType A and Type B individuals regarding their education.F. If αA is much larger than αB, then there is nothing the government can do to induceType B individuals to go to school beyond high school.G. Discuss briefly how your answer to E change if the human capital was not entirelyindustry specific.
(SW 7.10) Show that the two alternative formulas below for the homoscedasticity-only F-statistic are equivalent. F = (SSRrestricted − SSRunrestricted) /q SSRunrestricted/ (n − kunrestricted − 1) (equation 7.13 in SW) F = R2 unrestricted − R2 restricted /q (1 − R2 unrestricted) / (n − kunrestricted − 1) (equation 7.14 in SW)
After reading SB714, (SENATE BILL 714) What are the advantages and disadvantages of this proposed bill? Remember to respond to 2 other student's postsStudents post #1:The biggest advantage I see to this bill is the decrease in prison populations and the overcrowded conditions that make the news occasionally. This will cause a reduction in costs to run the correctional facilities, or at least it should. But government agencies such as the Dept of Corrections in any state are much like all government run programs, they always need more money and claim they don’t get enough to do their jobs properly. A decrease in prison population would also have to correspond with a decrease in budget as well to really show any savings. A disadvantage would be with decreased sentences or just a fine system for non violent offenders, some of the incentive not to commit a crime is removed. There is no real plan to decrease the amount of recidivism, which is probably one of the biggest…
