Stan Moneymaker needs 15 gallons of gasoline to top off his automobile’s gas tank. If he drives an extra eight miles (round trip) to a gas station on the outskirts of town, Stan can save $0.10 per gallon on the price of gasoline. Suppose gasoline costs $3.90 per gallon and Stan’s car gets 25 mpg for in-town driving. Should Stan make the trip to get less expensive gasoline? Each mile that Stan drives creates one pound of carbon dioxide. Each pound of CO2 has a cost impact of $0.02 on the environment. What other factors (cost and otherwise) should Stan consider in his decision making?
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.
1. Jack is considering selling his elliptical machine, which he never really used, is high quality, and has been taking up space in his spare bedroom. He lists it on Facebook Marketplace for "$1,200 or best offer" but in reality won't sell it for less than $1,000. Lina is looking to purchase a used elliptical machine. For a high-quality elliptical, she is willing to pay up to $1,300, and for a low-quality elliptical, she is willing to pay $600. Lina is risk neutral but she cannot tell if the elliptical machine is high quality or low quality. If she believes that 60% of used elliptical machines are high quality and 40% are low quality, what is the maximum price that Lina would be willing to pay? Would Jack agree to this price?
Hello! I need help with this question (in the screen shot). Thank you!
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.
You need to get gasoline for your car. You can drive ten miles (round trip) to a gas station on the outskirts of town and save 15 cents per gallon on the price of gasoline. If gasoline costs $3.55 per gallon and your car gets 37 miles per gallon for in-town driving, how many gallons of gasoline must you buy at the edge-of-town station to save enough on your fill up to pay for the cost to going to the station and back? Ignore the wear- and-tear cost of operating your car in this example. (Enter your answer as a number without the units of gallons.)
