As may have been blatantly obvious to you all along, since Miranda is the only inhabitant of the island, all she's really doing is catching fish for herself and eating them. However, even a single agent economy such as this one has all of the features any economy would, such as supply and demand curves, and equilibrium prices and quantities. Miranda plays many roles in this economy, as all of the profit earned by Miranda the producer is transmitted to Miranda the shareholder, which represents additional income that Miranda the consumer can spend on fish in addition to the labor income earned by Miranda the worker. (a) Suppose Miranda earns both labor income and profit, so that pq = wl + π(p). Rewrite her utility maximization problem and find the new demand for fish qd(p) and leisure r(p). (b) Find the equilibrium price p* and quantity q* of fish. (c) Find the equilibrium hours of labor l* and labor r*.

The neoclassical tradition in economics has put a huge emphasis on the benefits of competition. Only the perfectly competitive market structure reliably produces both productive and allocative efficiency (measures of static efficiency). Any of the imperfectly competitive market structures are generally viewed as a fall from grace. All are described as statically inefficient, it is just a matter of degree. Typically, we bemoan the movement toward a monopoly, and often invoke antitrust law to prevent it. If you were given a choice would you be willing to live in a world of perfect competition? Put another way, are there reasons to prefer imperfect competition (Monopolistic Comp., Oligopoly, and Monopoly)? Can you think of anything that you currently consume/use that is a product of a large oligopolist...Do you think it would even be possible for a perfectly competitive industry to have created it? If you are struggling with this topic, then search the web for "dynamic…
