Explain the difference between a positive and a negative network externality. A network externality for a good is positive if O A. the substitution effect of a price change is larger than the income effect, but a network externality is negative if the income effect is larger than the substitution effect. B. consumption by others decreases a typical consumer's marginal utility from consuming the good, but a network extemality is negative if consumption by others increases a typical consumer's marginal utility from the good. c. the price is lower the more people own it, but a network externality is negative if the price is lower the fewer people own it. D. the quantity demanded is higher the more people own it, but a network externality is negative if the quantity demanded is lower the more people own it. O E. it has a complement, but a network effect is negative if it has a substitute. Give an example of each. An example of a positive network externality is the dermand for A. a work of…
Consider a economy with three goods, a, b and c. The total supply consists 150a, 180b and 120c. There are three consumers 1,2,3 They have the followiing preferences: u1(a,b,c)=a u2(a,b,c)=a+b u3(a,b,c)=1+c a) Identify a competitive equilibrium from euqal incomes in which the price of a and c are equal. b) Find the egalitarian equivalent allocation(EEA is one that gives each agent the same utility as giving the one a fraction x of total supply, for x as large as possible)
Question 2: Suppose NAWEC charges D5 for every kilowatt hour of electricity for the first 1000 used in a month and D7.5 for each extra. Kilowatt hour after that. Draw the budget constraint for George who face this price schedule. Discuss why many Gambian may choose to consume exactly 1,000 kilowatt hour. Question 3 Suppose an individual consumes three items: steak, lettuce, and tomatoes. If we were interested only in examining this person’s steak purchases, we might group lettuce and tomatoes into a single composite good called ‘‘salad.’’ Suppose also that this person always makes salad by combining two units of lettuce with one unit of tomato. How would you define a unit of ‘‘salad’’ to show (along with steak) on a two-good graph? How does the price of salad (PS) relate to the price of lettuce (PL) and the price of tomatoes (PT)? What is this person’s budget constraint for steak and salad? Would a doubling of the price of steak, the price of lettuce, the price of tomatoes, and this…

Monique would be willing to pay as much as $15 for an order of pasta at Gialina’s Italian restaurant. Monique is pleasantly surprised to find out that the price of the pasta is only $10. Gialina would be willing to sell that pasta for as little as $7, but is actually able to price it at $10 because that’s the market equilibrium price for pasta. Given this information, Monique’s consumer surplus is ____________ and Gialina’s producer surplus is ___________. Select one: a. $8; $3 b. $15; $7 c. $5; $3 d. $5; $8
