DNFP7 (a) The President of ALS Society of America asks you to determine whether the level of ALS research in the U.S. is close to where it should be. You decide to estimate the demand and supply curves for ALS research, which you are thinking of as a pure public good. You find that there are two types of people in the U.S., each with a very different demand for autism research: Mother Teresas: P=$50-2Q Scrooges: P=$10-Q You also estimate that the marginal cost of producing each ALS study is $20. a. Sketch the Demand Curves for Mother Teresas and for Scrooges? • Label the x and y Intercepts. Mother Teresas: P-$50 when Q-0 Q-25 when P-0 Scrooges: P-$10 when Q-0 Q-10 when P-0

Each term (3 months) the current group of economics students completed a questionnaire as to how much they would spend on new purchases compared to how much they would save/pay off bills, if they suddenly and unexpectedly received a check for $1,000. The average MPC is shown in the table below. Month in which student poll was taken Average of students’ responses as MPC March 0.41 June 0.30 September 0.22 December 0.56   What do these MPC’s imply about the students’ thinking over the course of the year?   (Enter response here.)   What is likely happening in the economy during the same period of time?
