The French government announced plans to convert state-owned power firms EDF and GDF into separate limited companies that operate in geographically distinct marketsBBC News reported that France’s CFT union responded by organizing a mass strike, which triggered power outages in some Paris suburbs. Union workers are concerned that privatizing power utilities would lead to large-scale job losses and power outages similar to those experienced in parts of the eastern coast of the United States and parts of Italy in 2003. Suppose that prior to privatization, the price per kilowatt-hour of electricity was €0.13 and that the inverse demand for electricity in each of these two regions of France is P = 1.35 − 0.002Q (in euros). Furthermore, to supply electricity to its particular region of France, it costs each firm C(Q) = 120 + 0.13Q (in euros). Once privatized, each firm will have incentive to maximize profits. Determine the number of kilowatt-hours of electricity each firm will produce and…

- Suppose U.S. drivers purchased $50 billion of ExxonMobil-produced gasoline during a recent year, with one-half purchased directly from ExxonMobil-owned gas stations and one-half from independent (or third-party) gas stations. Suppose further that ExxonMobil purchased the oil (which it refined into gasoline) from foreign producers for $20billion and that it receives 60 percent of the sales revenue that independent stations generate from selling ExxonMobil gasoline. In this case, the value added by ExxonMobil to U.S. GDP is $__billion.arrow_forward4. We sometimes need to find out how long it will take a sum of money (or something else, such as earnings, population, or prices) to grow to some specified amount. For example, if a company’s sales are growing at a rate of 20% how long will it take sales to double? (Hint: Assume that your current level of sales is at 100 units and find out how long it will take to get to 200 units if sales grow at 20% each year. Solve for N.

- Why is per capita gross domestic product (per capita GDP) better than gross domestic product (GDP) as a measure of a country's wealth? O Location and land mass have a large effect on GDP and must be considered in assessing a country's economy.
