- Explain why societies cannot make a choice above their production possibilities frontier and should not make a choice below it.Question 3 Person 1 can allocate her 8-hour day between the production of two goods A and B. Each hour devoted to Good B yields 2 units whereas each hour devoted to Good A produces 4 units. a) State whether 9units of Good B and 12 units of Good A are attainable, unattainable, efficient or inefficient. (State all that applies) b) Person 2, can produce3 units of Good B or 4 units of Good A per hour who has the absolute advantage in the production of Good B? c) who has the absolute advantage in the production of Good A? d) Calculate the opportunity cost for Good B for Person 2 e) Calculate the opportunity cost for Good A for person 1 f) who has the comparative advantage in the production of Good B? g) who has the comparative advantage in the production of Good A?Below is the production possibilities table for consumer goods (maize) and capital goods (tractors):Type of productionProduction possibilities A B C D Emaize 30 27 21 12 0Tractors 0 2 4 6 8i. Show these data graphically. ii. If the economy is at point C, what is the cost of one more unit of maize? iii. Suppose improvement occurs in the technology of producing tractors but not in the technology of producing maize. Draw the new production possibilities curve. iv. Now assume that a technological advance occurs in producing maize but not in producing tractors. Draw the new production possibilities curve. v. Now draw a production possibilities curve that reflects technological improvement in the production of both goods.
- A consumer have budget amounting to $400 which he could spend on two goods such as ice cream at $25 and a slice of bread at $40. Assuming that the ice cream will be located aling the vertical axis, and bread slice along the horizontal axis, what is the opportunity cost of bread in terms of the ice cream? (How many units of ice cream will be given up to gain a slice of bread?) Answer in absolute value.person 1 can allocate her 8 hour day between the production of two goods: A and B.

- please only do: if you can teach explain each What does it mean?there is no quantity of wine that he can convert to grapes. Thus, for example, if he purchases 4 units of grapes and 3 units of wine, he could consume any bundle (4-s, 3+ s) why the s ? What does mean? with s € [0,4] how to know what to look at: If p₁ < p2 or p1 ≥ p2, why these? Please how to solve: x(p, w) = (2w/3p1, w/3p1) (2w/3p1, w/3p2)Match each diagram in Figure 1 with its description here.Assume that the economy is producing or attempting toproduce at point A and that most members of society likemeat and not fish. Some descriptions apply to more than one diagram, and some diagrams have more than onedescription.a. Inefficient production of meat and fishb. Productive efficiencyc. An inefficient mix of outputd. Technological advances in the productionof meat and fishe. The law of increasing opportunity costf. An impossible combination of meat and fishEhh and Mol can produce bread and butter. Suppose That Ehh can produce 40 breads per minute, while Mol can produce 30. Alternatively, Ehh can produce 10 butters per minute, while Mol can produce 5. Assume that Ehh and Mol specialize only one of the goods. Based only this information. For Ehh and Mol t consume the greatest amount of bread and butter, Ehh should specialize in producing ________because he has an ________advantage in /their production.
- jamie has $100 that he can spend on milk and gas. A gallon of milk costs $5.However, government gives its citizens a coupon that entitles people to 20%discount on their first 10 gallon milk purchases. Gas costs $4 per gallon andgovernment charges $1 for each gallon of purchased gas. Jamies utility functionis U (x, y) = 9x+10y, where x and y represent gallons of milk and gas consumed,respectively. What is Jamies optimal consumption of milk and gas?Part bIf government removes the quantity restriction to which the coupon applies (i.e.20% discount is applied to any quantity of milk purchased), what will be jamieoptimal consumption?Below is a production possibilities table for consumer goods (automobiles) and capital goods (forklifts): a. Show these data graphically. Upon what specifific assumptions is this production possibilities curve based?b. If the economy is at point C, what is the cost of one more automobile? Of one more forklift? Explain how the production possibilities curve reflfl ects the law of increasing opportunity costs.c. If the economy characterized by this production possibilities table and curve were producing 3 automobiles and 20 fork lifts, what could you conclude about its use of its available resources?d. What would production at a point outside the production possibilities curve indicate? What must occur before the economy can attain such a level of production?The president of LeTall University, President John, spends $30 per week on pizzas (qz)and beers (qb). At LeTall Pizza, his go-to pizza joint, pizza costs $3 per slice and beeralso costs $3 per can. Assume fractions of the goods are allowed.(a) Draw President John’s budget line (qb on the horizontal and qz on the vertical axis).(b) President John receives a coupon from LeTall Pizza. The coupon, which will expirein a week, allows him to buy a can of beer at a discounted price of $1 per can. Itis, however, only good for a dozen cans of beer. Draw President John’s budget lineunder the coupon. Label any critical points on the budget line.(c) In another week, LeTall Pizza offers a special deal for pizza. For every half dozenslices of pizza bought during the week, one can get two additional slices for free.Draw President John’s budget line under the special deal. Label any critical pointson the budget line.
