You are the Economic Consultant for Zuku Farms Ghana Limited. Zuku produces cowpea in a community where producers are able to switch back and forth between cowpea and groundnut depending on market conditions. Consequently, you were tasked by the management of Zuku and you estimated the demand function for cowpea as follows: where is the quantity of cowpea demanded in bags per month, is the average price of cowpea in Ghana Cedis, is the average price of groundnut in Ghana Cedis, and Y is the income of consumers. Assuming is initially GH¢31.00 per bag, Y is GH¢1001.50 Required: Find the resulting demand function for cowpea and determine the number of bags Zuku can sell at GH¢ 45.00 per bag. Management is considering increasing price of cowpea by GH¢10.00 per bag. Advise management on this price change using the concept of price elasticity of demand. Explain why management should be worried about a reduction in the price of groundnut

Suppose that this particular study compared a large group of individuals who play squash regularly with those of an equal-sized group who get no exercise at all. Playing squash does provide a good cardiovascular workout. However, we also know that squash players tend to be affluent enough to belong to clubs with squash courts. Wealthy individuals may have great access to health care, which can also improve cardiovascular health. If our analysis is sloppy, we may attribute health benefits to playing squash when in fact the real benefit comes from being wealthy enough to play squash (in which case playing polo would also be associ ated with better heart health, even though the horse is doing most of the work). Or perhaps causality goes the other direction. Could having a healthy heart “cause” exercise? Yes. Individuals who are infirm, particularly those who have some incipient form of heart disease, will find it much harder to exercise. They will certainly be less likely to play squash…

Economics Daegu considers producing electric razors for men. If the market demand is high, he would get a return of $100,000, but if there were a low demand for this type of razor, he would lose $60,000. Daegu also considers the possibility of ordering a market survey to gather additional information about the market demand. The survey includes a sophisticated questionnaire administered to a test market and costs $5,000. Daegu believes that there is a 62:38 chance that the market information will be favorable (i.e., predicting a high market demand) and unfavorable (i.e., predicting a low market demand). Furthermore, the probabilities of a favorable survey given a high market demand and an unfavorable survey given a low demand are both 0.8. Daegu is not sure if the value of the survey is worth the cost Draw the decision tree and advise Daegu
