This exercise requires the use of technology. Four sectors of the U.S. economy are (1) livestock and livestock products, (2) other agricultural products, (3) forestry and fishery products, and (4) agricultural, forestry, and fishery services. Suppose that in 1977 the input-output table involving these four sectors was as follows (all figures are in millions of dollars). Determine how these four sectors would react to an increase in demand for livestock (Sector 1) of $2,500 million, how they would react to an increase in demand for other agricultural products (Sector 2) of $2,500 million, and so on.

A special-purpose index is to be designed to monitor the overall economy of the Southwest. Four key series were selected. After considerable deliberation it was decided to weight retail sales 20 percent, total bank deposits 10 percent, industrial production in the area 40 percent, and nonagricultural employment 30 percent. The data for 1996 and 2008 are: Year Retail Sales ($ millions) Bank Deposits ($ billions) Industrial Production (1990= 100) Employment 1996 1,159.0 87 110.6 1,214,000 2008 1,971.0 91 114.7 1,501,000 Construct a special-purpose index for 2008 using 1996 as the base period and interpret.
Suppose that land is specific to corn, capital is specific to automobiles, labor is mobile between sectors, and payments are as follows: Automobiles: Sales revenue = 200; Payments to labor = 100; Payments to capital = 100 Corn: Sales revenue = 200; Payments to labor = 40; Payments to land = 160 Suppose price of corn increases by 20%, the price of automobiles increases by 10%, and the wage increases by 15%. Calculate the Nominal Percentage change on Rental of Land and put your answer in the box below. (Keep your answer in percentage with 2 decimals. For example, If you got 15.26% , fill in 15.26 in the box below. Do NOT use 0.1526. )
According to Dib (2022), “Sustainable aviation fuel production contributes to ending hunger and malnutrition by promoting resilient agricultural practices that improve productivity and output.

1. An economy has two sectors: Electricity and Services. For each unit of output, Electricity requires 0.8 units from its own sector and 0.3 units from Services. Meanwhile, Services require 0.4 units from Electricity and 0.6 units from its own sector to produce one unit of Services. The production vector necessary to satisfy a final demand of 1,000 units of Electricity and 2,000 units of services is (a, b). What is a+b? 1. 8,500 2. 9,000 3. 9.500 4. 10,000 5. 10.500
A rice farmer in Japan analyzed the sales data. The data showed that when the product price (per unit) shifted from 1500 yen to 1000 yen, the quantity increased from 350 units to 400 units. From the price elasticity of demand perspective, the farmer should set (Q6) the unit price. (Assume that other things such as macroeconomic or time-trend factors are equal and do not impact on the demand and thus the farmer's pricing.) Q6 1. Higher 2. O Lower
Interpreting regression results. Spirit Freightways is a leader in transporting agricultural products in the western provinces of Canada. Reese Brown, a financial analyst at Spirit Freightways, is studying the behavior of transportation costs for budgeting purposes. Transportation costs at Spirit are of two types: (a) operating costs (such as labor and fuel) and (b) maintenance costs (primarily overhaul of vehicles). Brown gathers monthly data on each type of cost, as well as the total freight miles traveled by Spirit vehicles in each month. The data collected are shown below (all in thousands): Conduct a regression using the monthly data of operating costs on freight miles. You should obtain the following result: Regression: Operating costs = a + (b X Number of freight miles) Plot the data and regression line for the above estimation. Evaluate the regression using the criteria of economic plausibility, goodness of fit, and slope of the regression line. Brown expects Spirit to…
