Homework Answers
Resources allocation amd distribution of goods and servuces are combined together to form an economic system by any organisation. Resource allocation is basically alloting resource for each task and distribution of goods is basically dissemination of raw materials in production.
Herfindahl Index and Concentration ratio are two methods which determine firms concentration in any given market amd is thus arithmetically calculated. Herfindahl index is calculated using sum of squares of market share of each firm. While concentration ratio is combined market share lf top 'N' firms in market.

Explain the function of the goods and services market and the factors of production market in the Circular Flow Model. Explain both real and money flows and the role of prices in both the product and factor markets. Using an example, explain why the production possibilities frontier is bowed outward. Use the production possibilities frontier to explain fully economic growth, efficiency, and inefficiency. Suppose that China can use cheaper labour to produce every product more cheaply than Canada. Explain why...

1. Consider a steel firm that faces a convex isoquant production function where the inputs are labor and capital. The production function yields constant returns to scale. The firm is currently at a cost-minimizing combination of labor and capital for the desired level of output. Suppose the capital used in the production process emits low amounts of polluted wastewater into a nearby river. In order to promote the use of the environmentally friendly capital the government provides a unit subsidy...

2) (4 points) Suppose that a firm is producing in the short run using a combination of labor and capital. At their current point of production, the MPL = 100, MPK = 6000, w = $25 and r = $2000. In the long run, is the firm minimizing costs? If not, how should they change around their use of K and L to minimize costs while producing the same quantity? Discuss.

Consider two countries, A and B. Each country produces only two goods with 1,000 production units: Wine and Cheese. Country A can produce 400 bottles of wine or 200 pounds of cheese or any combination of two goods. At the same time, country B can produce 1200 bottles of wine or 300 pounds of cheese or any combination of two goods. Suppose that both countries maximize their utility when they consume wine and cheese in equal proportions. 1. a) Absolute...

Question One We can rank goods by two dimensions: (a) how much is the rivalry of consumption and (b) how difficult is it to exclude someone from consuming the good if that person doesn't pay for the good. We can put together four combinations of these two dimensions. (1) High rivalry of consumption; Very difficult to exclude individuals (2) Low (or no) rivalry of consumption; Very difficult to exclude individuals (3) High rivalry of consumption; very easy to exclude individuals....
