Question 2 TRUE/FALSE QUESTIONS Consider the following list of statements. Each statement is either true or false. You must read each statement carefully and then select the option that you believe is correct as your answer. Write down only the question number and next to the number either "True" or "False". Example: If you believe sub-question 2.6 is true, then write down: 2.6. True. 2.1. The law of supply states that the higher the price of a good, the lower the quantity supplied (ceteris paribus). 2.2. One of the reasons why labour markets may be imperfect is that workers in a particular market are organised in a trade union which then acts as a monopolistic supplier of labour. 2.3. A perfectly competitive firm has a downward-sloping demand curve. 2.4. The demand for a product depends on the availability of the product. 2.5. In the short run, a firm can expand output only by increasing the quantity of its fixed inputs.

Indicate whether the statement is true or false, and justify your answer.People who have a newly diagnosed chronic disease, such as diabetes, often suffer large declines in their wealth over time. This decline in wealth is entirely explained by decreased hours of work.
Please choose two of the question threads to answer. 1) Screening and Imperfect Information Asymmetric information refers to a market where one side (either the buyer or the seller, but usually the buyer) has less information than the other side of the market. When there is asymmetric information in a market, markets are inefficient because the side with less information doesn't want to take the risk involved in buying (or selling) the good or service. One method of solving this problem is through screening. Screening is a strategy one uses when they don't have information. A screen can be any indicator that lets the screener know if the good or service is reliable and will meet the screener's wants. Offer an example of when you used screening to solve a lack of information. What kind of screen did you use? Was the screen effective? Were you happy with the result? 2) Public Goods and Technology Public goods are defined as non-excludable and non-rival in consumption. If something…
Examine the following statement and determine the accuracy of the statement. Cars are considered as luxury items. Thus, a decrease in the consumer's income would result in a decrease in the demand for cars. Consumer income will affect the demand for a product. The future expectancy of a product will affect the demand for the product. Future expectancy not only encompasses the future price of a product but also other factors that will affect the demand for product such as advancement in technology and government policy.
Question:Ahmed is an agent for Bader for maintaining Bader’s antique cars collection, including sale and purchase of antique cars. Ahmed has had this position for several years, but recently Ahmedhas developed a cocaine habit. He recently sold one of Bader’s cars and kept some of the money himself to buy some cocaine. Soon thereafter, Ahmed was declared bankrupt. The government then notified Ahmed that he had sold the maximum allowable number of cars in a year without getting a dealer’s license. Shortly thereafter, Bader was on a secluded island and died, which no one knew about until 2 weeks later. Discuss the effect of these events on the existence of the agency.
Due to Covid-19, it is expected that the US economy will contract quickly going into a recession for a (hopefully) short period of time, and as a result of that, incomes will fall. If so, what happens in the markets for inferior goods? Answer choices: Prices and quantities both rise. Prices and quantities both fall. Prices rise, quantities fall. Prices fall, quantities rise. Prices rise and quantities remain unchanged. Prices remain unchanged and quantities fall.
An increase in the expected price of commodity would likely to follow the current supply and demand for commodity. 1.increase both the demand and the supply 2.decrease both the demand and the supply. 3.Increase the demand, but decrease the supply. 4.increase the supply, but decrease the demand.
Question asked in two parts. Please help with the bolded questions. The demand for a commodity is given by Q = β0 + β1P + u, where Q denotes quantity, P denotes price, and u denotes factors other than price that determine demand. Supply for the commodity is given by Q = g0 + g1P + v, where v denotes factors other than price that determine supply. Suppose u and v both have a mean of 0, have standard deviations su and sv, respectively, and are mutually uncorrelated.a) Solve the two simultaneous equations to show how Q and P depend on u and v.b) Derive the means of P and Q.c) Derive the variance of P, the variance of Q, and the covariance between Q and P.d) A random sample of observations of (Qi, Pi) is collected, and Q is regressed on Pi. (Thatis, Qi is the regressand, and Pi is the regressor.) Suppose the sample is very largei) Use your answers to (b) and (c) to derive values of the regression coefficient.[Hint: Use Equations (4.7) and (4.8) in Stock and Watson’s book.]ii) A researcher…
Demand for Orange Juice is given as Qd = 200 – 300 P + 120 I + 65 T – 250 Pc + 400 Ps Suppose Income is I = $10, Expectations T = 60, Price of Pc = $15 and Ps = $10. Find the Demand Equation. Using the demand function from part a., Calculate Elasticity of Demand for price range of $10 and $11. What will be the ‘Price Elasticity of Demand’ at P = $10? Interpret the Elasticity of Demand calculated in (C) above.

Is the rational actor model the best way to understand foreign policy decision-making? Define the model, indicate why it is used, and define any other relevant concepts. Raise an objection to the model. Reply to your objection, or raise a second objection. In your answer, be sure to define “rationality” and discuss important (and relevant) concepts as they relate to the Russian decision to invade Ukraine. Approximately 500- 700 words.
