I am having difficulties with figuring out the formulas for this this question. Is there a walk-through for this?
You are the manager of a monopoly that sells a product to two groups of consumers in different parts of the country. Group 1’s elasticity of demand is -2, while group 2’s is -3. Your marginal cost of producing the product is $30.

a. You are a monopolist.
b. You compete against one other firm in a Cournot oligopoly.

c. You compete against 19 other firms in a Cournot oligopoly.

What are possible exchange rate regimes and what is the world’s most practiced regime currently and why (reasons)? Also discuss the pros and cons of each regime.

Comment critically (find facts about the policy actions and evaluate them in the context of the material): ‘The negative supply shock caused by the corona virus will devastate the economy. Fearing that there would be stagflation, the Federal Reserve and the Government independently have taken actions. Yet some critiques asserted that the actions of the policy makers will not be sufficient or relevant.”

Compare and Contrast Various Selling Models

The purpose of this assignment is to compare and contrast two or more competing selling models. The basis for this paper will be The Challenger Sale (Dixon and Adamson) versus Strategic Selling (Miller & Heiman).

1. Provide an overview of both approaches. This overview should include the theoretical basis, practical application, and general steps or stages.
2. Take a position on which approach would be more effective for managing customer accounts that would be considered “Key Customers” or “Strategic Customers”. An example of a key or strategic account would be one where a the sale involves:
   1. A complex solution
   2. Multiple decision makers
   3. Significance in terms of revenue opportunity

Your arguments should provide rationale for your position and relate to specific outcomes (e.g., closing business, positioning as a business partner/consultant, long term relationship building, etc.)

3. Give a detailed example of how your approach would be applied to a sales opportunity (can be real or hypothetical) to achieve a very specific sales goal.

An industry's inverse demand was PD = 20 - 0.1Q and its inverse supply was PS = 4 + 0.1Q.

a. Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, government revenue and deadweight loss for taxes of $4, $8, $12 and $16 per unit sold.

b. Graph government revenue and deadweight loss as functions of these tax rates.

c. What tax maximizes government revenue?

Suppose both Smith and Jones utility functions of U(X,Y) = X1/2Y1/2. Smith is endowed with (X, Y) = (9,25) and Jones is endowed with (X, Y) = (25,9).

a. Draw an Edgeworth box with indifference curves through this endowment.

b. At what combinations of X and Y are both better off (i.e., are Pareto Improving)?

c. At what combinations of X and Y are there no more gains from trade (i.e., are Pareto Efficient)?

d. If they agreed on a price of one X for one Y, would they be better off?

Current and future role of business in society

Suppose price-taking firms have cost functions given by C(q) = 90 + 5q + 0.025q2.

a. What are the equations of marginal costs and average costs?

b. How much would the firm produce at prices of $9, $10, $11, and $12?

c. How much profit would the firm earn at prices of $9, $10, $11, and $12?

d. Graph the MC, AC. Indicate the profits at a price of $9 per unit.

e. What price would be charged in the perfect competitive equilibrium?

1. Suppose a firm’s multiproduct cost function is C(Q₁, Q₂) = 65 - 0.5Q₁Q₂ + 0.3Q₁² + 0.4Q₂², and management wishes to produce 12 units of each product (Q₁ = Q₂ = 12 units).

1. Determine the marginal cost of each product at the planned levels of production. Clearly show your steps and calculations.

2. Determine whether the multiproduct cost function exhibits economies of scope or not at the planned levels of production. Clearly show your steps and calculations.

3. Determine whether the multiproduct cost function exhibits cost complementarity or not at the planned levels of production. Clearly show your steps and calculations.

4. Discuss the economic implications of the outcomes in (b) and (c) above.

The following table provides the project annual budget, total number of projects, and total number of people working on the projects for City of Killingcovid annually:

For A to F, use the data between Yr 2006 and Yr 2015 to calculate the following:

A. The mean of the Number of People Working on the Project.
B. The median of the Budget.
C. The range of Budget.
D. The variance (3 significant figures) of Number of Projects.
E. The standard deviation (nearest integer) of Number of People Working on the Project.
F. The 20% trimmed mean of Number of Projects.

G. Draw a dot plot comparing the Number of People Working on the Project from Yr 1997 to Yr 2006 and those from Yr 2009 to Yr 2018.

H. Using the data for Annual Budget from Yr 2001 to Yr 2017, draw a double stem leaf plot, then calculate the relative frequency.

Depreciation is a tough concept since there may be so many factors associated with it. The IRS changes the tax deductions given for depreciation on a regular basis. On a larger purchase the tax deduction may be significant. How much of a factor do you think depreciation should be on the decision to move forward with a project? For example, if the tax benefit is greater in the following year, should management hold off on the purchase? Do you feel that managers understand this concept well enough to include it in their decision making process?
