- 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*.arrow_forwardMichael 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?arrow_forwardAllocative efficiency is concerned with: producing the combination of goods most desired by society. achieving the full employment of all available resources. producing every good with the least-cost combination of inputs. reducing the concavity of the production possibilities curve.arrow_forward
