Turkish Economy (ECON422)

Explain the targets of the industrial sector in the 4th five year development plan (1979-1983). State the techniques of production under this plan.

2. This problem evaluates the short-run asset approach to exchange rates. Assume the foreign price level P* is equal to 1, there is no inflation in either country, and r* is equal to 0.04 or 4%. Nominal money demand, MD, is given by L(i)PY.

?(?)=1−0.5?   Y = 20 M=19.6

Hence the economy is at an initial equilibrium summarized by P = 1 and    E = 1.

A. The central bank decides to stimulate the economy with a one-time permanent increase of the money supply by 2% so M=19.992. Determine the initial impact of this increase on the exchange rate E under the assumptions of the model.

Consider an oligopoly with 2 firms. The inverse demand curve is given by P = 100 – Q₁ – Q₂. Firm 1’s total cost function is TC₁ = 30Q₁. Firm 2’s total cost function is TC₂ = 20Q₂. Assume now that the firms compete by choosing their prices simultaneously, so it is a Bertrand Oligopoly model. Assume that firms choose prices in 0.01 in intervals. (i.e. A firm can choose to charge $10.00 or $10.01, but not $10.005).

a) Consider the case where firm 1 chooses P₁ = 30 and firm 2 chooses P₂ = 20. Argue whether this is or is not a Nash Equilibrium.

b) Consider the case where firm 1 chooses P₁ = 30.01 and firm 2 chooses P₂ = 30. Argue whether this is or is not a Nash Equilibrium.

Consider a competitive market with 12 firms. 6 of these, which we call Type 1 firms, have the below cost structure:

                             C₁(Q)=Q²+Q+5

and the remaining 6 firms, which we call Type 2 firms, have the following costs:

                            C₂(Q)=0.5Q²+Q+20

The market demand is given by

                            D(P)=183-3P

Show the Edgeworth box fully labeled Jason and Clay love cheese and cola. Jason has an initial endowment of 4 bottles of cola and 1 cheese bar. Clay has an initial endowment of no cola and 5 cheese bars. They have no other assets and make no trades with anyone other than each other. For Jason, utility function is Cobb-Douglas, U(x, y) = xy, where x is the number of the bottles of cola and y is the number of cheese bars he consumes. For Clay, cola (x) and cheese bar(s) (y) are perfect complements, his utility function is U(x, y) = min(x, y). (a) Draw the Edgeworth box with cola (x) on the horizontal axis and cheese bar(s) (y) on the vertical axis. Measure Jason's consumption from the lower left corner of the box.

Two players take turns taking sticks from a pile of 16 sticks. Each player can take at most 3 sticks and at least 1 stick at each turn. Whoever takes the final stick wins the game. Describe in words the optimal strategy for each player. Is there a first-mover advantage in this game? Is there a second-mover advantage?

You are an economic consultant for XYZ Corporation who reports to the VP of Finance, Maria Horowitz. You learned that multiple departments of your company are collaborating to create a presentation for a prospective client that explains how XYZ Corporation can help them improve their business. Maria has been asked to present on several financial aspects of an organization. She tasks you with developing the sections of the presentation relating to globalization. The potential client, named Fourevr Enterprises, mentions it mostly operates domestically, both in terms of production and selling, because it is unfamiliar with and apprehensive to engage in globalization efforts.

• How does international trade affect Fourevr, both domestically and in international markets?
• How can existing or potential changes in trade policies affect Fourevr’s operations?
