1. Tony Waiters (wearing a jacket with the Burnaby's Cliff Ave FC crest, so the picture here must have been taken during his tenure as the Cliff Ave technical director) was a great Canada soccer manager, having won Soccer Bowl and being the only manager so far to take Canada national team to the World Cup final tournament (Canada is going to the next two tournaments, and Tony always maintained that it was his dream that people stop calling him the most successful Canada manager ever as other would achieve more than him). He asked me once, "Why do you think so many very good soccer players come from Africa?" Tony's own answer was very much an economist's answer. Can you figure it out? Really good soccer player almost all compete in the same market, European soccer leagues. This means that the answer to his question is not on the demand side - if you come to play in, say, Germany you expect the same rewards as the player comparable to you whether they come from Nigeria, Croatia, or Brazil. It must be that the African supply of players is greater. Recall how we figured out what determines the supply and explain, "Why do so many very good soccer players come from Africa?" (5) you think

On the graph input tool, change the number found in the Quantity Demanded field to determine the prices that correspond to the production of 0, 6, 12, 15, 18, 24, and 30 units of output. Calculate the total revenue for each of these production levels. Then, on the following graph, use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot the results.   Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 6 versus 5 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced. The marginal revenue of the sixth unit produced is________.   Calculate the total revenue if the firm produces 12 versus 11 units. Then, calculate the marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced. The marginal revenue of the 12th unit produced is_________.

Suppose the imaginary company of Panthera is a small, Reno-based American apparel manufacturer specializing in athleisure. The following table presents the brand's total cost of production at several different quantities. Fill in the remaining cells of the following table. Quantity Total Cost Marginal Cost Fixed Cost Variable Cost (Pairs) (Dollars) (Dollars) о 120 1 210 2 270 3 315 4 380 5 475 6 630 (Dollars) (Dollars) Average Variable Cost (Dollars per pair) Average Total Cost (Dollars per pair) On the following graph, plot Douglas Fur's average total cost (ATC) curve using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot its average variable cost (AVC) curve using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot its marginal cost (MC) curve using the orange points (square symbol). (Hint: For ATC and AVC, plot the points on the integer; for example, the ATC of producing one pair of boots is $210, so you should start your ATC curve by placing a green point at (1, 210). For MC, plot the…

Suppose that in 2018, you inherited from your grandfather a small planetarium that had been closed for several years. Your planetarium has a maximum capacity of 75 people and all the equipment is in working order. You decide to reopen the planetarium on the weekends as a new laser-tag venture called Shoot for the Stars, and much to your delight it has become an instant success, with admission tickets selling out quickly for each day you are open. Describe some of the decisions that you must make in the short run. What might you consider to be your “fixed factor”? What alternative decisions might you be able to make in the long run? Explain

Big Miners at Odds Over Whether Worst Has Passed - Wall Street Journalby: Rhiannon Hoyle (see images below) 1) How do potential changes in the Chinese economy affect the demand for minerals as well as the decisions made by mining companies? 2) Why is it difficult for mining companies to get the timing right with regard to the development of new mines? 3) “Mining typically follows an about four-year boom-to-bust cycle….”  Is there any reason why they cannot use their historical data make their investment decisions and demand forecasts? 4) Mining companies are facing a potential “high price for mineral commodities” state of the economy and a potential “low price” state. Why then are they visiting factories and scrapyards? 5) How do environmental policies affect the demand for coal?  Why are mining companies concerned about their ability to predict changes in environmental policies?
