Each has 10 hours in a day to allocate between conducting interviews and completing paperwork. In two hours Alec can produce 5 interviews or 19 files of paperwork. In two hours, Ellie can produce 13 interviews or 22 files of paperwork. What is Ellie's Opportunity Cost of an interview in terms of files of paperwork? Enter a number only.

Michael owns a strawberry farm in central California and is deciding how many strawberries to supply this month. Which question appropriately applies the cost-benefit principle to the supply decision? Is the price Michael gets for the extra bushel of strawberries at least as large as the marginal cost? What is the fixed cost of production for Michael's strawberries? If Michael was not producing strawberries, how else could he use his resources? Is Michael "holding all else constant" when making this decision?

You are a University student who must live off-campus in the second year. There are two types of one-bedroom apartment where you prefer to live because it is near the campus. One rents for $400 per month and the other $360. According to the University Students’ Housing Bureau 80 percent of apartments in the area consists of the $400 type while the remaining 20 percent are of the $360 type. You need to visit the apartments to discover the rent. Suppose the first apartment you visit cost $400 and the opportunity cost of your visit is $6 per visit. 1.

Malaria Eradication Back on the Table In response to the Gates Malaria Forum in October 2007, countries are debating the pros and cons of eradication. Dr. Arata Kochi of the World Health Organization believes that with enough money malaria cases could be cut by 90 percent, but it would be very expensive to eliminate the remaining 10 percent of cases, so countries should not strive to eradicate malaria. Make a graph with the percentage of malaria cases eliminated on the x -axis and the marginal cost and marginal benefit of driving down malaria cases on the y -axis. On your graph: (i) Draw a marginal cost curve and marginal benefit curve that are consistent with Dr. Kochi’s opinion. (ii) Identify the quantity of malaria eradicated that achieves allocative efficiency.
