- 10. A VERY BRIEF EXPLANATION ( FEW WORDS/1-2 LINES/RELEVANT GRAPH) MUST BE PROVIDED FOR A TRUE (T) AS WELL AS A FALSE RESPONSE AS WELL.COVID-19 has caused several shortages: paper products, hand sanitizer, and even nurses. When a hospital needs nurses, they might call Fastaff, which has been sending its nurses all around the country. Once a nurse gets an assignment, they pack their bags and need to be there within a week. During a pandemic, these assignments come with some risk, but these nurses are well compensated for their time. “They really run into the fire,” explained Fastaff Senior VP of Marketing Lauren Pasquale-Bartlett. “They’re very brave, they’re like the special forces of nursing. They go in for these really critical assignments.” The need for traveling nurses across the country has increased drastically because of the coronavirus pandemic. One of the state’s needing nurses is Ohio, according to Pasquale-Bartlett. “Particularly in the last few weeks we’ve seen a two to three increase in demand in requests for nurses to come in and support the staff,” she said. “That really indicates to us that it’s an…COVID-19 has caused several shortages: paper products, hand sanitizer, and even nurses.

- Am. 398.A drug dealer knows whether his supply is high quality (@ = H), mediocre (@ = M), or low quality (@ = L). He values his product at $30 if it is high quality, $20 if it is mediocre, and $10 if it is low quality. A potential buyer values the drugs at $30 + x if they are high quality, $20 + x if mediocre, and $10 + x if low quality, where 0 < x < $5. The buyer does not know the quality of the product - he only knows that each quality is equally likely : Pr(@ = H) = Pr(@ = M) = Pr(@ = L) = 1/3. The buyer offers a price p for the drugs, which the dealer can either accept or reject. Assume if the dealer is indifferent, then he accepts. 1. In equilibrium, which drug qualities are sold, and at what price? 2. Now, suppose Pr(@ = H) = Pr(@ = L) = 1/4, while Pr(@ = M) = 1/2. Find the values of x for which mediocre drugs will be sold?Ten years ago, the town of Easton decided to increase its annual spending on education so that its high school graduates would be able to earn higher wages. Now Easton has asked you to evaluate the effectiveness of the spending increase. Their data show that before the spending increase, the average annual salary of recent high school graduates was $25,000 and that now that average salary has risen to $28,500. Fortunately for your analysis, a neighboring community (Allentown) did not change its annual spending on education. Ten years ago, recent Allentown high school graduates earned an average of $22,500, and now that average is $23,750. (a) Use a difference-in-differences estimator to determine whether Easton’s spending increase caused the wages of their high school graduates to increase. (b) What underlying assumption do you have to make in order for your estimate to be valid? What might cause your underlying assumption to be invalid? (c) This data set contains only two…
