Suppose an economy produces steel, wheat, and oil. The steel industry produces $80,000 in revenue, spends $4,000 on oil, $8,000 on wheat, pays workers $60,000. The wheat industry produces $120,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on oil, $10,000 on steel, and pays workers $80,000. The oil industry produces $180,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on wheat, $20,000 on steel, and pays workers $80,000. There is no government. There are neither exports nor imports, and none of the industries accumulate or deaccumulate inventories. Calculate GDP using the production and income approaches.

4. Exercise 2.5 The demand for MICHTEC's products is related to the state of the economy. If the economy is expanding next year (an above-normal growth in GNP), the company expects sales to be $90 million. If there is a recession next year (a decline in GNP), sales are expected to be $75 million. If next year is normal (a moderate growth in GNP), sales are expected to be $85 million. MICHTEC's economists have estimated the chances that the economy will be either expanding, normal, or in a recession next year at 0.3, 0.5, and 0.2, respectively. The expected annual sales is The standard deviation of annual sales is million. The coefficient of variation of annual sales is million.

4. DBS Farms is a producer and retailer of farm products. DBSmain products are Mangoes, Pawpaw and Pineapples. The current price of the Mangoes per Kilogram is GHS 50, the Pawpaw/Kg is GHS 80 and the Pineapple is GHS 40. This year the DBS Farms sold 10,000 kgs of Mangoes, 20,000 kgs of Pawpaw and 1 million kgs of Pineapples. In an attempt to improve revenue, the managers of the firm have decided to increase all prices by 10%. Market research has suggested that the price elasticity of demand for each product is: Mangoes: - 1.5; Pawpaw: -2.5; Pineapples: - 0.6. You have been asked to evaluate the planned price increases. a. Comment on the planned price changes. b. Would a 10% price reduction have been better for some or all of the products?
Suppose an economy produces steel, wheat, and oil. The steel industry produces $100,000 inrevenue, spends $4,000 on oil, $10,000 on wheat, pays workers $80,000. The wheat industryproduces $150,000 in revenue, spends $20,000 on oil, $10,000 on steel, and pays workers$90,000. The oil industry produces $200,000 in revenue, spends $40,000 on wheat, $30,000 onsteel, and pays workers $100,000. There is no government. There are neither exports norimports, and none of the industries accumulate or decumulate inventories. Output not sold toother sectors is sold as final goods Q A government is introduced. First consider this policy: the government taxes oilproducers $10,000, and distributes this revenue to workers. Recalculate GDP using theincome approach.
1. Much of the demand for U.S. agricultural output comes from other countries. Suppose that the total demand for wheat in the U.S. wheat market is QDT = 3,244 – 283P, where P is the price measured in dollars per bushel and Q is the quantity of wheat expressed in millions of bushels per year. Of the total demand, total domestic demand was QD,US = 1,700 – 107P. Total supply of wheat in the U.S. market is QST = 1,944 + 207P. As a result of the ongoing trade war with China, suppose the export demand for wheat falls by 40 percent. a. U.S. farmers are concerned about this drop in export demand. How does this drop in export demand impact the market price of wheat in the U.S.? Do farmers have much reason to worry? Explain/support your answer. b. How does the reduction in export demand affect U.S. consumer surplus in the wheat market? Illustrate and explain. c. Now, suppose the U.S. government wants to buy enough wheat to raise the price to $3.50 per bushel. With the drop in export…

Total expenditures remain unchanged. ● Total expenditures decrease, reaching a minimum at a price of $40. Total expenditures increase, reaching a maximum at a price of $40.
Why are prices of agricultural commodities volatile? Discuss, drawing on economic theory and using examples. taking the wheat market as an example. What happens to the income of all wheat growers if the wheat supplied increases, with no other changes? What happens to the income of all wheat growers if the wheat supplied decreases, with no other changes?
