A local restaurant has an advertising budget of $10,000. The restaurant can purchase TV ads from a local station (X) or send mailers to local mailboxes (Y).The price for a TV ad is PX= $1,000. The price to send ads through the mail is PY= $500 per campaign. Suppose the local station is running a special where if an advertiser buys 5 TV ads, the sixth ad is free (limit one free ad). On the graph below, how much is A? A B BL

Your own a chocolate producing company which can advertise on both television (T) and internet(I). The effect of TV and online commercials on sales is again given byS(T,I) = 500 + 48T−6T2+ 112I−6I2+ 4TI. You have a budget of $25 that you can spend on T and I. The price of aTV commercial is $12per unit and the price of an online commercial is also $12 per unit. 1. Determine the optimal level of TV commercials T and online commercials I if you have to spend all of your budget. You should provide two methods to solve this, by direct substitution and by setting up the Lagrangian. Is the Lagrange multiplier positive or negative? Give an intuitive interpretation of why this is the case? 2. Now determine the optimal level of TV commercials T and online commercials I if you DO NOT have to spend all of your budget. Do you obtain the same answer as subquestion 5.1? What is the Lagrange multiplier equal to in this case? Discuss.
U.S. food markets consumers viewed beef as a normal good from 1960-1976, but viewed it as an inferior good after that point. This type of change is not abnormal, in that as average household incomes rise, preferences might change. For instance, as households move from poor to middle-class, their consumption of beef might increase. However, as households move from middle- class to upper-middle-class, they might choose to purchase more exotic foods products. Assuming you are a beef producer in 1983, what will happen if incomes continue to increase? a. The marginal cost of beef will increase. b. The marginal cost of beef will decrease. c. The demand for beef will increase. d. The demand for beef will decrease.
A consumer has the following utility function (shown in image) where ? is the number of spa days and ? is the number of city breaks consumed. Suppose that the price of a spa day is £200 and the price of a city break is £300. (i) Set up the economic problem and find the numbers of spa days and city breaks that minimise expenditure if 12,800 units of utility are to be obtained.
Your monthly budget is $2500.00. You have been asked to save 25% of your monthly budget. Please show the formula that you would use in excel.
Question 10 Which of the following startements about network externalities is CORRECT? Air pollution is an example of a network externality. For a good with network externalities, the number of people who are willing to buy a unit of the good is uniquely determined by the price. Network externalities are always positive. The manufacturer of a new good with network externalities might give away a free version of the good. For a good with network externalities, one person's valuation of the good is always increasing in the number of other people using the good.
Solve parts d,e and f Jen from Thunder Bay consumes housing (H) and food (F). Her studentstipend is $600/month. She has a utility function of U(H, F) = F1/3H2/3.The initial price of food is pF = 1 and the price of housing is pH = 10. (a) Determine how much food and housing she consumes.(b) Suppose the government decides to subsidize her housing by 50%.This has the effect of lowering the price she actually pays for housingto $5. If the price of food is $1 and the price of housing is $5, calculateJen’s utility maximizing bundle of goods.(c) How much does the Government spend on this program (just on Jen)?(d) Calculate her utility level using the utility function above and thequantities consumed.(e) Calculate Jen’s utility maximizing bundle and her resulting utilitylevel if the government chooses to simply give her the money theywould have spent on the program (rather than subsidize housing).How much utility does Jen get?(f) Given the two programs cost the same, which one is better for…
Juanita is deciding whether to buy a skirt that she wants, as well as where to buy it. Three stores carry the same skirt, but it is more convenient for Juanita to get to some stores than others. For example, she can go to her local store, located 15 minutes away from where she works, and pay a marked-up price of $104 for the skirt: Store Travel Time Each Way Price of a Skirt (Minutes) (Dollars per skirt) Local Department Store 15 104 Across Town 30 87 Neighboring City 60 80 Juanita makes $36 an hour at work. She has to take time off work to purchase her skirt, so each hour away from work costs her $36 in lost income. Assume that returning to work takes Juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. As you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling. Complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of Juanita's time and the total…
You must allocate the 70,000 seats in Reliant Stadium (in Houston) among Texan (Houston) and Cowboy (Dallas) fans for an upcoming game between the two footfall teams. You can set different prices for seats in the Dallas and Houston sections of the stadium. Suppose you can obtain $40/ticket from Houston fans irrespective of the number of seats you allocate to Houston fans. You must drop price in order to sell more tickets to Dallas fans, however. Let Q be the number of tickets you allocate to Dallas fans. Assume that the maximum price you can charge for these tickets is given by the following inverse demand function P= 80 500 (a) Express the total revenue (on all 70,000 seats) from ticket sales as a function of Q; (b) Derive the first-order condition of the revenue-maximizing problem (it's a function about Q); (c) What is the optimal number of seats allocated to Dallas fans?

There are two shows on Netflix that Jeff can watch, Show 1 and Show 2. x₁ measures the number of episodes watched of Show 1 and x₂ measures the number of episodes watched of Show 2. Jeff's preferences can be represented by u(x₁, x₂) = x² + ax². Jeff has 5 hours available for watching Netflix today. Each episode of Show 1 lasts 30 minutes, while each episode of Show 2 lasts one hour. For all question parts, round to three decimal places if necessary. For parts (a) - (f), let a = 1. Draw Jeff's indifference curves for the utility levels u = 4, 9, 16. Draw a straight line between the bundles (x₁, x₂) = (4,0) and (x₁, x₂) = (0,4). Now, use your picture to determine whether the following two statements are true or false. Answer "1" for true. Answer "0" for false. a) Statement 1: Jeff's preferences are strongly monotone. b) Statement 2: Jeff's preferences are strictly convex. c) Find the bundle at which one of Jeff's indifference curves is tangent to the budget line. (x₁, x₂)=( d) Evaluate…
