Also,note that if after the price reduction enough income were taken away from MadameX to put her back on the original indifference curve, she would consume thiscombination of A and B:QA = 1.5, QB = 9Determine the income effect.

Answer: Substitution effect refers to change in quantity demanded due to change in relative price,…

RMC, Inc., is a small firm that produces a variety of chemical products. In a particular production process, three raw materials are blended to produce two products: a fuel additive and a solvent base. Each ton of fuel additive is a mixture of 2/5 ton of material 1 and 3/5 ton of material 3. A ton of solvent base is a mixture of ½ ton of material 1, 1/5 ton of material 2, and 3/10 ton of, material 3. After deducting relevant costs, the profit contribution is $40 for every ton of fuel additive produced and $30 for every ton of solvent base produced. RMC’s production is constrained by a limited availability of the three raw materials. For the current production period, RMC has 20 tons of material 1, 5 tons of material 2, and 21 tons of material 3 that are available for production. Assuming that RMC is interested in maximizing the total profit contribution, answer the following: a. Find the optimal solution. How many tons of each product should be produced, and what…
Tennis Products, Inc., produces three models of high-quality tennis rackets.

Based on the results of price changes that have been instituted in the past, Tennis Products’ chief economist estimates the arc price elasticity of demand to be –2.5. Furthermore, she estimates the arc cross elasticity of demand between Model A and Model B to be approximately 0.5 and between Model A and Model C to be approximately 0.2. Variable costs…

A competitive industry has production processes that generate pollution. ok with studies carried out on the affected population, the marginal costs associated with contamination are constant and CU500. for each unit of the good produced. these costs are associated with lost workdays, illness treatment costs, and the nuisance generated in the population. Currently the production level of the industry is 250 units and the market price is 1,500 (MU/unit). Market studies carried out by companies estimate that if the price rises At 1,800 (mu/unit) the quantity demanded would fall to 200 units and the marginal cost of the production of each company in this new production level is 1,300 (m.u./unit). Assume linearity in market demand and in the marginal costs of production of the companies Graph to justify your answers. A)Determine the optimal production level from the perspective of the whole of the society. Show your result graphically.
