Hello can any one help with this Economics question: A restaurant serves two special dishes, A and B to its customers consisting of 60% men and 40% women. 80% of men order dish A and the rest B. 70% of women order B and the rest A. In what ratio of A to B should the restaurant prepare the two dishes ?

A market economy seems to be able to satisfy customers who have different tastes in cars. Whether you want a big car, small car, red car or blue car, as long as you are willing to pay for it, you can find the car you desire. But with protective services (police), the market doesn’t seem to work as well. If you want lots of police attention, or little police protection, whether you want them to carry guns or not, whether you want them to prevent drug sales or not, none of us seem to be able to get the exact protection services that we are willing to pay for. Using economic reasoning, can you explain why the market can provide for many different tastes in cars, but not for many different tastes in protective services

Bleecker Street runs from A to B, as shown in the diagram. The lone convenience store currently in operation along this street is at A. An entrepreneur who wants to open another store in the neighborhood is weighing a choice between the only two available locations, C and D. If customers, who are uniformly distributed along Bleecker Street, always shop at the store nearest to where they live, which of the locations C or D would be optimal from the perspective of customers and why? A C D B O Location D because that would minimize the average travel time for customers. O Location D because that would mean each store would get an equal share of the market. O Location C because that would give the new entrepreneur higher profits. O Locations C and D would be equally attractive because consumers have no reason to care about the relative profitability of different entrepreneurs.

Anastasia, Emma, and Greta are deciding what to do on a weekend getaway. They each suggest a first, second, and third choice and then vote on the options. Their first choice, second choice, and third choice preferences are as shown: Anastasia Emma Greta First Choice Вeach Mountain biking Canoeing Second Choice Mountain biking Canoeing Beach Third Choice Canoeing Beach Mountain biking If the choice is between mountain biking and canoeing, how will the group vote? Select the correct answer below: two votes for mountain biking; one vote for canoeing two votes for canoeing; one vote for mountain biking three votes for mountain biking three votes for canoeing

Problem 1 Last week, neither Alistair nor Bodana purchased blueberries (x). Both consumers had $30 to spend on blueberries and/or raspberries (y), the price of the two fruits was $3 per pack and both consumers bought raspberries only. Alistair's utility for blueberries and raspberries is UA(x,y) = x+2y. Bodana's utility for blueberries and raspberries is UB(x,y) = x +12ln(y). a) In two separate graphs, illustrate Alistair's and Bodana's optimal choices. Your graphs must illustrate the consumers' budget constraints and their indifference curves at the optimal bundle. b) At their optimal bundle, what is Alistair's marginal rate of substitution of raspberries for blueberries (- MUx/MUy)? At their optimal bundle, what is Bodana's marginal rate of substitution? This week, blueberries cost $3 per pack just like last week, however raspberries now cost $4 per pack. c) How many packs of blueberries and raspberries will Alistair buy this week? Clearly justify your answer. d) Using the…

Utility comparisons can be made between two individuals, providing the same good  or  service is being compared.   True or False?

What is the  purpose of the two fields of study neuroeconomics and behavioral economics?why might people tend to be overconfident?

Price elasticity measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded or supplied to a good to a change in its price. Note: Select an option True False er than the Save Answer button will NOT save any changes to your answers!

In the diagram to the right, we have five different combinations of movies and books. Combination A represents 2 movies and 3 books. Combination C represents more books (7) and the same number of movies (2). Points B, E, and F are other combinations with more movies, more books, or more of both. When compared to combination A, combination B provides satisfaction to the consumer. When compared to combination F, combination B provides satisfaction to the consumer. When compared to combination A, combination F provides satisfaction to the consumer. These conclusions are based on what assumption about preferences?
