(a) For equilibrium quantity, MC = Marginal Benefit from fishing
i.e. MC=8= d/dh (40 ln(h))) Differentiating with respect to
h)
i.e. 40/h = 8, which gives h=5
(b) See Excel graph. Additionally, a Marginal Cost and Marginal
benefit graph also added. Hope this would help you appreciate the
equilibrium value better!

(2) Ralf also enjoys fishing. The total benefits (in dollars) he obtains from time spent fishing are given by TB = 40*ln(h), where ln(.) is the natural log function, and h is hours spent fishing. Because he has to miss work, where he earns a wage of $8 per hour, his marginal cost of time spent fishing is MC = 8. A.Solve for the optimal quantity of hours that Ralf will spend fishing and show your work. Hint: You may...
(1) Suppose that Ralf enjoys collecting morel mushrooms from the forest. The marginal benefit that he receives (in dollar terms) from each additional mushroom can be represented by the function MB = 42 – 4m (where m represents the quantity of mushrooms). Ralf’s marginal cost of collecting mushrooms is given (in dollar terms) by the function MC = 2m. A.How many morel mushrooms will Ralf optimally collect? In other words, what quantity of mushrooms maximizes Ralf's net benefits? Show your...

Suppose the marginal costs of reading are constant at $6 per hour, while the marginal benefits of reading decline (over time) as more reading is performed. In particular, suppose the following table contains the marginal benefit associated with various levels of hours spent reading. Time Spent Reading (Hours) Marginal Benefits (Dollars per hour) Assume the marginal benefit curve is a straight line through the two points described in the table On the following graph, use the blue points (circle symbol)...

Answer is attached with question. Please help with graph (Question 5:9 points total, 4 for each part) Remember Fred and Penny: We assumed a two- person world. Penny is a smoker, Fred is not, and the smoke makes Fred sick. Cigars are provided for free by God, the marginal cost of cigars is zero for both Penny and Fred. Continue to assume that Penny enjoys smoking some cigars and continue to assume that her marginal benefit from each additional cigar...
Amanda and Bartholomew, a lovely couple with degrees in medicine, own and operate a demonology clinic. The clinic is open for business Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The thing is, many of their patients work for the government or the private sector and they have to take sick leaves to see the doctors during those days. Since most people do not work in weekends, Amanda and Bartholomew think they could attract many more patients if they...
In cell C6, insert a Scatter Chart for the Returns Completed versus Return Price data from the Data worksheet. You may be used to seeing Price placed on the Y-axis from other economics courses, but in this problem we are using price as the independent variable. Inserting Chart Select the Scatter chart from the provided chart options in the Charts group of the Insert tab of the Ribbon. Selecting Data Series Then choose Select Data in the Design tab on...
