Why is a production possibilities frontier typically drawn as a curve, rather than a straight line?
The marginal product of effort, a typical worker in fast-food burger joint, is one- fourth burgers per hour; that is, MPe = .25The price of a burger is $2. The figure graphs Mac’s marginal cost of effort. If Mac increases his effort by one unit per hour, the change in the burger joint’s revenue is $ per hour. That is, what is VMPe , the value of Mac ‘s marginal product of effort ? Plot the VMPe curve in the figure. Mac efficient effort e^ is the solution to what equation? Illustrate the solution in the figure. Mac efficient…
It is estimated that a grocer’s daily profit from the sale of two brands of cherry juice is given by thefunction:P(x,y) = (x - 30)(70 - 5x + 4y) + (y – 40)(80 + 6x – 7y) centswhere x is the price per can of Brand V Juice and y is the price per can of Brand Triple V Juice. CurrentlyBrand V Juice sells for 50 cents per can and Brand Triple V Juice sells for 52 cents per can.i. Use marginal analysis to estimate the change in the daily profit that will result if the grocer raises theprice of Brand Triple V by one cent per can while keeping the price of Brand V unchanged.ii. Find a stationary point of the daily profit function. Classify this stationary point.
Transfer and revenue effect:The consumer gets positive benefits from consuming bread (B) and cake (K). Consumer utility is as follows: U(B,K) = 20·B2·K The price of bread is 200 ISK. but the price of a cake is 400 ISK. Consumer consumption is set restrictions as his income is ISK 20,000. Put cakes on x-axis and bread on pictures y-axis. a) Show the equation for the locating ratio of bread for one cake. Draw the equivalence curve on a graph and interpret what the equation position ratio says at each point in the equivalence process. b) Find the most efficient consumption combination and draw on the picture. c) The state decides to tax bread so its price rises to 400. Who is the most cost-effective consumption mix based on changing prices? Change change consumption patterns in the separate effects of displacement and income effects. Show the most efficient the consumption composition in the picture and differentiate the changed consumption due to price changes intransfer and income…
PROBLEM 2.25% PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL LAGRANGE OPTIMIZATION In the era of the Covid 19 pandemic, we are required to consume lots of fresh fruits. The satisfaction of a consumer in consuming two kinds of fruit, namely Apples (X) and Oranges (Y) is: U = X3 Y2 income or budget to buy the two fruits is Rp. 250,000, the price of apples IDR 75,000/fruit and the price of oranges is IDR 25,000/fruit. a. How many apples and oranges must be obtained in order to achieve optimum satisfactionb. Calculate the optimum satisfaction value that can be achieved

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.

An estate agent advertises its houses in two media; Daily Graphic and Ghanaian Times. The agent believes that there is a relationship between the sales S and the amounts spent on the two advertising media. The relationship is given by; where, d is the amount spent in Daily Graphic and g is the amount spent in Ghanaian Times. The estate’s agent fee is 12½% and this includes the cost of adverting. If the agent has planned to spend only 200 thousand Ghana Cedis on advertisement, show how it should be allocated between the two media in order to maximize net profit.
